Virtues (Base Branch Series Book 8) - Plot & Excerpts
For all the fucking analytical skills in the world, he’d never understand women. Especially not one as complex as Cara was. He wanted to, though. He sat with his back to hers. A door between them. A door and something else that had nothing to do with his tenderhearted tendency toward taking lives. When he’d confessed what he’d only ever whispered to himself, her vibrant blue eyes had locked on him with something far from repugnance. He didn’t know what the look meant, but nothing could top the way it wrapped around him like a full body embrace. The shift in her had come after he’d made the comment about safety. Immediately, she’d quieted, and then when made to talk about the subject, she had shifted away from her to him, or the move, or Rin, or Luck, or anything except what truly ate at her. He should have forced her to face him, it, whatever she needed to battle before she could be free. Had he, there wouldn’t be an ever-widening gap between them.
