“Priest? Oh, the kid. The one that Da…” His nose crinkled. “Never mind.”
“He’s an adult,” I corrected. “He isn’t underage. I’m not about to let this continue.”
Maybe it was fate that the first email that cropped up which stopped the protocol Conor was running was this one.
A‘thank you’for a satisfactory purchase.
I wanted to throw shit at the wall.Neededto break stuff. Wrecking things felt good when I was beyond frustrated with this shit show of a world, so tired of the depravity which I waded through trying to bring justice to these pieces of shit who didn’t deserve to breathe the same air as me.
To many, I was a monster. I killed without compunction. I had very little conscience. But I was a fucking saint by comparison to the animals I’d come across in my dealings with the Sparrows.
Conor didn’t stop me when I picked up my cell phone and tapped out a message.
Only…
I thought about Nyx, Giulia, and their son, Samael. Then the Newfoundlander and Chihuahua that followed the family around like they were Bo Peep and the dogs were sheep.
Nyx had found something I’d been seeking for over a decade—peace.
I couldn’t rupture that, not when Samael’s future was at stake.
Priest was seeking peace of his own thanks to the rape and murder of his baby sister by an animal who Nyx had put down, but I knew I couldn’t approach him directly.
Conor, peering over my shoulder, said, “The Five Points will help. Da was on a crusade once he found out about, you know, everything.”
“You sure?”
“Positive.”
Deleting my message, I switched out the contact and texted:
Me: Nyx isn’t in the game anymore, is he?
Rex: Never knew he whored himself out.
Me: Har. Har. Har.
Rex: We talking about hunting?
Me: Yes.
Rex: No, he’s out of that. He’ll help though.
Me: Do we really want to tempt him?
Rex: Probably not. I’m guessing you have someone who needs to die?
Me: Yes. Excruciatingly. He needs to hurt, Rex.
Rex: Where are you?
Me: Can’t say.
Rex: More like WON’T say.
Rex: Heard you tore Maverick a new one.
Rex: When, IMO, you were both at fault. What the hell were you thinking, just going silent like that?
