“I knew we should have brought the kids. Jasmine would have put the psycho in her place.”
“She looks like she might follow you home to finish the job,” Landon observes.
We all glance back over, and sure enough, she points at Maddox before cutting her finger across her neck.
Liam shudders. “Definitely triple lock the doors tonight.”
“Hopefully there are no kids on the cruise. One might push you overboard,” Hayden remarks. “It would be tempting.”
“No pushing anyone overboard,” Clay mutters.
“Yeah, it ain’t the Titanic,” Maddox snaps. “There won’t be a door waiting for me.”
“No, you’d probably sink the door,” Madison comments.
“I would not,” he yells, aghast.
“God, if a kid doesn’t throw you over, I will,” she promises.
“I’m your twin,” he barks.
“Not conjoined so I’ll be safe,” she replies.
“Are they always like this?” Ben asks.
“Yes,” everyone replies, making me laugh.
“This is tame compared to what it’s normally like. We come away to blow off steam,” I assure him.
“The police actually suggested it a few years ago now, and we’ve been going away ever since,” Hope explains. “It makes their job easier.”
“Easier?” Ben questions. “I’m pretty sure I heard they have your picture on a board in the staff room. Max Carter’s has a warning sign not to feed him.”
“It’s true,” I tell them when they go to argue.
Liam grins. “I knew they fucking loved us.”
Drew clears his throat. “I don’t think it’s a temple.”
“Yeah, more like a most wanted board,” Ben answers.
Mark’s grin couldn’t get any bigger. “Wait until I tell the others. We need to get a picture with it.”
“Ask Beau to take one,” Charlotte offers.
I smile. “I think he means he wants one standing next to it.”
Mark nods, along with the others, and Charlotte turns to Ben, her complexion pale. “Am I on it?”
“No. Neither is Madison,” he tells her.
“Wait? I’m on it?” Hope asks, narrowing her gaze. “Why am I on it?”
Ben shifts beneath me. “Um, I don’t know.”
“Yes, you do,” Landon calls him out. “Why is she on it? Tell us.”
“Because you stole a dog,” he answers.
