2 " So basically he does everything that would drive you batshit crazy,” Sloane offered. “Yes! Exactly. He’s everything that would normally drive me fucking insane, but it’s Cael, and I don’t know. Instead of seeing those individual traits, I just see Cael.” Ash’s eyes widened, as if surprised by his own response. “That’s called being in love with someone.” “Yeah, "
3 " Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer. "
4 " His eyes seemed to change when he got emotional or worked up. “What do they look like?” He tried not to appear too nervous. Sloane didn’t hesitate. “They look beautiful, but then everything about you always is.” “Well, now you’re just trying to get in my pants.” Sloane "
5 " Dex and I are getting married.” Ash almost choked on his beer. "
6 " You’re getting married.” Sloane nodded. “I am.” “To Dexter J. Fucking Daley.” “Yes.” “Sweet Jesus.” Ash didn’t move. “So….” Ash wrinkled his nose. His eyes got all glassy, and Sloane blinked at him. “Ash?” There was a sniff, and Sloane straightened. Wait a second. Was… was Ash—no. That wasn’t possible. Was it? Sloane’s brows shot up. “Holy fuck.” “Fuck you, asshole.” Ash wiped his eyes and jumped off his stool. He grabbed Sloane, pulled him off his own stool, and brought him into a crushing embrace. "

10 " Sounds he’d never heard come out of his mouth before filled the room as Dex fucked him senseless. “Yeah, you like that? Who’s the apex predator now?” Sloane laughed. “Is that what you think?” Sloane’s inner Felid stirred at the challenge. Dex might be part Therian now, but there was only one Alpha in this room, and it was Sloane. With "
11 " Just thinking about my new TIN Ash.” Sloane looked puzzled. “What?” Dex nodded toward Sparks who was over by Destructive Delta. “I’m going to drive her up the fucking wall.” And he was going to enjoy every minute of it. "
12 " I don’t know why they can’t release me today,” Tony grumbled. “I’m fine.” “I know, right?” Dex held back a smile. “I mean, I don’t understand how that bullet didn’t bounce off you, what with you being indestructible and all. "
13 " Then his eyes caught the silver band around his ring finger. He was getting married. Dex’s "
14 " I can handle it,” Dex assured him. He even managed a smile. “You’re a good man, Dex. This isn’t a job for good men.” “Even good men have darkness in them. "
