“Elizabeth kicked his jean-wearing cowboy ass. She put him through a coffee table. It was beautiful.”

That explained what she’d overheard him telling Violet. Apparently, he didn’t lie.

Now, her heart was racing.

Before she decided on what could change both of their lives, she needed to spend time with him to see what he would do if she came back into his world.

Eve needed to make sure.

“What are you guys working on?” she asked, even though she already knew.

“We still haven’t found Chevy,” Jinx said. “We’re heading out to take care of some dirty cops.”

Again, he’d been honest.

She rolled her neck.

“Need me to come out of retirement?” she asked, suddenly feeling the need to protect Dakota. “You know how he gets shot. A lot. I’m asking because I need to see how he behaves. I need a trial run, and Adder can read a room better than Eve.”

She laughed.

Oh, Dakota was in for a shock.

Jinx would be glad to have her sister snake back, even if her husband was staring at her like she was insane.

Eve.

Was.

Pregnant.

Oh, Jesus.

Dakota was going to have the mother of all strokes. That was for damn sure.

Jinx went there, knowing a pregnant woman was a dangerous woman.

“I say yes, and I know the Major will too. She still can’t leave the house without worrying about being seen.”

“Rogue?” she asked. Eve wanted his opinion since he was one of Dakota’s brothers.

His wife was staring at him.

THE.

LOOK.

“I say do it. This is going to stir Dakota up that the woman he’s nuts about and pregnant, is playing war games. If you want an honest reaction, then I say do it. I like when Dakota gets spicy. It’s like a telenovela.”

She laughed.

“Can I bring Violet there?” she asked. “Will she be safe?”

Rogue suddenly wished he was home to see his friend’s face when Adder was back and ready to do her job.

“Absolutely. Oh, and when you get there, and you see Dakota?”
