Kir sent guys to watch over Damian, right?
Me
As if that wasn’t my first thought?
Me
Or Kir’s?
Our quasi-brother just underwent his final surgery before the wedding, and it’s been a success. But the doctors are going to keep him in that coma for another few days just to be sure.
I get where Annika’s worry is coming from. Normally, Damian’s a strong, gym-addicted, cocky, trigger-happy tough guy. But while he’s weakened and lying unconscious in a hospital bed? He’s the perfect target for someone wanting to hurt Kir.
Annika
Sorry, just freaked out
Me
I know. Same. I’m just giving you hard time. Yeah, there’s like ten guys at the hospital right now.
Kir ends his call with a curt command and tosses the phone onto the table, rubbing his temples as he sinks into the chair across from me. He looks uncharacteristically tired. It appears even he isn’t immune to the pressure.
Me
I gotta go. I’m helping Kir on recon. Check in later?
Annika
For sure. Love ya, stay safe.
Me
Have fun on your speeeeeciiaal first niiiightt…. ;)
Annika
I hate you.
I grin as I close the messaging app.
“Any luck?” Kir asks, his eyes flicking to my laptop.
I shake my head. “Nothing yet. Whoever did this covered their fucking tracks well.”
He sighs, his expression darkening. “All right. Keep at it if you can. I want to find these fucks and string them up by the balls.”
“Or ovaries.”
He gives me a look. I shrug.
“It could have been women.”
“Womenwould be smart enough not to attack my daughter’s wedding.”
I laugh. “Touché.”
