A Council of Betrayal
“Apparently, the high altitude made me a lightweight. I awoke with Logan stroking my hair, my head nestled on a pillow in his lap.
I sat up quickly, fighting the head rush.
“We’ve arrived,” he announced, his fingers still trailing through my hair.
I nodded, rubbing sleep from my eyes as everyone gathered their belongings and headed off.
We were loaded up into a long limo. I leaned back against the seat, blowing out a breath, gearing up.
“You ready for this?” Logan asked softly.
I smiled, patting... his knee. “Don’t worry, I’ll protect you.”
He huffed his amusement.
I turned to our group. “You’ve probably heard this speech before, but pay attention. You are not to be alone.
Making that foolish decision puts not only you but our entire organization in danger. If someone attacks you physically, kill them. If they verbally assault you, hurt them. We cannot appear too strong or too confident. Weakness will be preyed upon, so release you inner asshole. And if you need help with that, you can have some of mine.”MoreLess
