I tugged her in the other direction. “Then, let’s go.”
“Kaz.” She remained rooted in place. “If she can go in Paolo’s dreams, then she can get rid of Lunita.”
“I do not give a fuck about that. She could harm you and my sons.”
Emily’s bottom lip quivered. “We are safe.”
“Then, why do you look scared?”
“Because I’m not dumb enough to not be scared of her.” She gazed at Delphine.
I looked too.
Delphine continued forward, tapping that cane with each step and looking like a sweet old woman spending a relaxing time among flowers.
I put my view back on Emily. “I do not trust her.”
“I trust her enough to heal me.”
“And then after that?”
“Kaz, what could happen after that?”
I scowled. “I do not think your healing is worth the risk of something else happening to you.”
“Are you fucking serious, Kaz?”
“Of course, I am.”
“Are you forgetting that Lunita killed Olga?”
Sadness washed over me. “I would never forget that.”
“And she had me fucking the gardener.”
Do not remind me.
Rage surged through my body.
“I already told you that I am not leaving New Orleans until Lunita is gone.” Emily let go of my hand. “So, tell me this. What’s really going on? Do you want Lunita to stay?”
“What?”
“Every time I say I am getting rid of Lunita, you flinch.”
“I do?”
She scowled. “Yes.”
“I did not realize that.”
“Well, you do.”
I put my hands in my pockets. “Stop looking at me like that.”
“Like what, Kaz?”
“Like we are talking about my having an affair with another woman.”
