The neon “Sunshine Diner” sign flickers in the gray Chicago drizzle as I
pull my black Audi up to the curb. Another shakedown, another punkass small business owner who thinks he can skip out on the O’Connor
family’s protection fees and get away with it. Well, unlucky for him, Declan
sent me to personally collect. And I never leave a job unfinished.
I step out of the car, the damp chill instantly seeping through my tailored
wool coat. The door chimes with a perky little jingle as I push into the
diner, my Ferragamo loafers squeaking on the checkered linoleum. Fucking
perfect.
The scent of coffee and bacon grease hangs thick in the air, making my
empty stomach clench traitorously. A petite Asian chick in a poodle skirt
eyes me warily from behind the counter, clearly clocking the bulge of my
Glock under my arm. She opens her red-painted lips to say something, but a
warm tenor cuts her off before she can speak.
“Welcome to Sunshine Diner! Sit anywhere you like, I’ll be right with you.”
I turn to see a man emerging from the double doors to the kitchen, a bright
smile lighting up his boyishly handsome face. Sandy blond hair, a few
shades darker than the whipped butter on the pies lining the counter, falls
over his forehead. His lean frame moves with easy grace as he wipes his
hands on the blue apron tied at his trim waist.
My breath catches in my throat. I’d pegged the owner, Asher Davis, as some
sniveling old fucker, not this fresh-faced pretty boy. But that megawatt grin
falters as those honey brown eyes find mine, a flash of fear darkening their
sunny depths. He knows who I am. Good.
“Mr. Davis,” I say, my voice a low rasp. “I’m here to collect the protection
money you owe my family.”
Color drains from Asher’s face, but to my surprise, his jaw firms with
stubborn resolve. “I’m sorry, but I won’t be paying. Please leave my diner.”
Well fuck me sideways. Declan’s little dossier didn’t mention the kid had a
backbone of steel along with that tight little ass. Irritation and grudging
respect war in my gut as I take a menacing step forward.
“Listen, sunshine,” I growl, watching him flinch slightly at the nickname.
“You’re three months behind. You pay up now, with interest, or I start
removing some of these tacky-ass flamingo salt shakers from the tables.
With a baseball bat.”
Asher’s throat bobs as he swallows hard, but those amber eyes never leave
mine. “I don’t respond well to threats, Mr…?”
“O’Connor. Liam O’Connor.” I flash him a grin full of teeth. “And trust me,
boyo, that ain’t a threat. It’s a fucking promise.”
We stare each other down for a suspended moment, the air between us fairly
crackling with tension. Heat licks through my veins, fierce and startling.
Christ, this kid’s defiance is getting me hard. I want to see what other
