Rage/Killian: Bayou Heat Novellas (1001 Dark Nights Book 5) Page 15

  “If you’re really going to push this, I can call someone—” Blue started, then stopped. His eyes came up and met hers, and it was impossible to miss the heavy, pulsing pain that echoed there.

  This wasn’t about the jerks or a bad day. This was deep and long lasting. Emily knew some of what had happened to him in the past couple of months. Finding out— along with the whole town— that his daddy was Everett Cavanaugh. That he had part claim to the Triple C. Along with a set of three new brothers. But clearly there was more that was weighing on him. So much more, she’d venture to guess.

  She slipped the keys into her jeans pocket and settled back in front of her Coke. This wasn’t how she’d wanted the night to go. Watching over a hot, drunk cowboy. She’d had visions of a bathtub, a great book, and some buttered noodles afterward. But tonight this man had offered up his protection, and she couldn’t help but do the same.
