“I’ll be fine,” I whisper.
I turn and jog toward Archer.
“You know something about who hurt Birdie?” I ask Archer.
He nods. “Let’s walk, sweet thing.”
I have the sudden urge to kiss Archer too.
This is all intense.
Sexy, serious, intense, all mixed together.
When I start walking with Archer, I look back at Cullen.
He’s watching us.
“Don’t worry about Doyle,” Archer says. “He’s so fucking stoic.”
“But you’re aSavage,” I say. “You get to do more?”
“I get to take care of things,” Archer says.
“And did you do that?” I ask.
Archer doesn’t respond to me.
I jump in front of him and grab his shirt.
“Archer,” I say. “What do you want?”
His hands grab my hips and he picks me up and kisses me.
It’s so sudden and shocking, I gasp for a breath.
It’s a brief kiss and he puts me back on my feet.
“He doesn’t get to kiss you last tonight,” Archer says. “Now, let’s get down to serious talk.”
“Uh…”
My lips quiver.
Archer touches my face. “Focus, sweet thing. For what I’m about to tell you.”
“I’m here,” I say. “What’s going on?”
“I took care of it,” Archer says.
“Took care of what?”
“I took care of what happened.”
Before I can ask anything else, Archer puts his thumb to the left side of his neck and runs it across to the right side.
I step back and cover my mouth.
Archer nods.
