Hades~
"This is getting out of hand," Kael mused. "First the bomb at the stairwell around Ellie's neck and then the one in her phone."
I raised a brow. I agreed with Kael, but I stared at him, a question in my gaze. "Ellie?"
"It's a little nickname that Red gave Elliot."
My jaw locked instantly. He was calling her by the nickname that I gave her. But I reined in my anger. Losing control when it came to Ellen was growing more and more unavoidable. It was like she had become a damn trigger.
Kael, the ever-observant beta, noticed the shift I tried to put in check.
"Hades, I know we have a case at hand," he gestured to the paper containing the details, design, probable sources, and suspects concerning the bombs.
I didn't like where this was going, but I kept a steady gaze on him. "You have something to say."
