“Definitely.”
“For Godwin?”
“It can’t be,” I said. “Mila described the guy, and she placed him at around our age. It can’t be Godwin. But it’s definitely someone connected to him, and it’s definitely someone protected by him.”
Devon shook his head. “Fuck,” he repeated.
Chapter Ten
Mila
“Hi, Lonny,” I greeted as I made my way through the living room.
“Hey, Mila,” he greeted, as he looked over my sweatpants and workout bra. “Are you training today?”
“Yeah.”
“Fuck… it’s Sunday.”
I smiled. “I need to practice.”
“You actually sound like you’re looking forward to training.”
“Maybe I am,” I said, giving him a wink.
“Fuck… how did he manage to convert you?” Lonny asked.
I shot him a glare and refused to answer. “Lonny?”
“Yeah?”
“Do you have someone… a partner or a wife?”
Lonny smiled. “Why do you ask?”
“I’m just curious,” I admitted. “I haven’t seen any women around here, and I was just wondering how that works, especially if you have families at home waiting for you.”
“I’ve got a wife and two kids at home… boys. Their names are Langdon and Kyle,” Lonny told me.
“No way,” I said. “How old are they?”
“Langdon’s four, and Kyle’s one.”
I smiled. “And your wife… she doesn’t mind?”
“Mind what?”
“Um… mind you being part of this crew?”
“Nah, she gets it,” he said.
I nodded, realizing that I’d probably have to pry any more information out of Lonny. “I’d better head into the training ring,” I said. “Don’t want to be late.”
“Don’t let him kill you,” Lonny
shouted out after me.
I smirked. “Please… worry about your leader,” I yelled back. “He’s the one who should be scared now.”
