Summary
“Tell me something true, then.” And – oh, that was desperation leaking into Ty’s voice. It danced with his anger until all the fiery causticity bled from Ty’s next sentence. “Please, Kit.”
A more honest man would have said that Kit was hopeless when it came to all matters Tiberius Nero Blackthorn. A more honest man would have admitted every visage of Ty rang with such sharp clarity in Kit’s head that not a single conversation or swallow of an Adam’s apple could escape it, because Kit’s memory – Kit’s everything – was a steel deathtrap that clung with nothing short of vicious fervor to Ty Blackthorn, that the ferociousness with which he cherished – adored – worshiped that man was implacable and shred any semblance of proper sense Kit may have ever possessed.
But because Kit was not a more honest man, because Kit had grown up on the streets of the LA Shadow Market with nothing but a con for a father and a penchant for keeping secrets, all he said was:
“I love you. I’m sorry.”
