Whisper looked over her shoulder at her husband. “Why don’t you speak Gaelic?”

“Why don’t you?” he asked.

The lieutenant was polite enough to switch to English. “Want me to take the women next door?”

“What’s next door?” Whisper asked, trying to push her husband back with her shoulders, but he didn’t move.

“Party in the playroom.”

“Oh!” Whisper exclaimed. “Sex party.” She grabbed Razer’s hand. “Sex party!”

“Cameras are on,” Connel said.

“Doesn’t matter,” Whisper said. “You don’t think there’s footage of me and my husband screwing? Please, that shit’s probably on YouTube.”

“Peanut,” Razer growled.

“Who cares about sex?” Nicole shrieked.

She flinched; the woman could be shrill.

“We got targets in that room?” Razer asked Connel behind her.

She didn’t see his response. Was that why they’d had sex in the office? To avoid the cameras, or were they on in there too?

“Nothing we can’t handle,” Connel said. “Score on the move?”

“Yeah, Play’s backing him up.”

“Shy’s keeping him sane,” Whisper said. “By the way, you’re welcome for that. If she and PJ weren’t grounding him, he’d have laid waste to this whole damn city.

“No,” Razer said, raising a hand.

Whisper caught it and wrapped his arm around her as she turned. “But we’ll watch the shop if you need to travel.”

“Why would I need to travel?”

“Madison Byrne.”

A few beats went by.

“She comes to me,” Connel said, “not the other way around.”

“Okay, then call her. Get her here.”

“I’m armed.”

“Me too,” Whisper said, folding her arms again.

Though in that dress, it didn’t look like she had space for a weapon… maybe she meant her husband.

“Control your Doherty, cousin, or I’ll do it for you.”

“Give it a shot,” Whisper said, taking a step. Razer caught her to pull her back. “You think I’m afraid of a fuck like—”
