I grunt and release her. I know the area well. I’ll order something for tonight.
If we decide we’ll be staying here, then I’ll make sure the cupboards are stocked. Oisín still has the dogs, so we don’t have to rush on account of them. We have plenty of time to decide where we will call home.
Once our food is ordered, I change into the things she handed me. I had wondered what happened to this T-shirt. It’s one of my favorites.
Still in my dress shirt, Danika climbs onto the bed and pats the space beside her. I go to sit next to her, and she hands me a few worn pieces of paper. I unfold the pages and begin to read.
My beloved Sunshine,
I’m so sorry I have left you. I know it hurts now, but you will find your way again. You always do.
With all I’m about to tell you, you’ll probably wonder why I didn’t stop this from happening if I knew it was coming. I knew, but it all has to happen this way. We all have to play our parts for the greater good.
What’s coming is meant for good. Things will be better for so many. I truly believe this.
I’m so proud of you and the woman you have become. I did so much to prepare you for your future, your destiny. You’re not going to understand everything in the beginning.
I need you to have patience. I know. Not your strong suit, but if you trust me, this will all pan out how it’s supposed to. You’re not going to want this, but it has to be you.
I’m giving everything to you. My money, my homes, the horsemen, and my title. You will be the new pale horse and will carry my responsibilities. However, there are a few things you will need to make sure you do.
The knowledge that you’re the new pale horse is to be limited. The other horsemen will know, but that’s by design. Despite this, keep this information close.
Hudson will become your head of security. I’ve vetted him and have given him strict instructions to allow you to continue your life as it is for now. Make Lyric your right hand for the time being.
He will be your face. It must be him, Danika. You will understand why in time.
I was a part of something big. A time will come when you will need to fill my shoes in regard to the Alliance. You play an intricate role.
I know you and what you are thinking. Don’t go to seek these men out for answers. It is important that you join them naturally.
There are three signs that will show you the time to step up. The first will be your encounter with the head boss of the Alliance.
The two of you will find each other. He will come to you, or you will know when to find him in the right timing. He wants something and you will have an answer to get him what he wants.
When the time comes, you will know exactly what to do and you will offer him a gift. In return, you will ask him to allow you to keep your anonymity. At this time, it will be important for Lyric to be your representative.
Keep your finger on the pulse of things, but keep your distance and remain hidden. Don’t go to the roundtable meeting in Ireland. That is not your time. It will be too soon to reveal who you are.
Baby Girl, this is all about timing. The first two signs are only signs to get ready for the moment to come. The next sign will come in the form of the Irish liaison. Again, do not seek him out.
Be open and allow him to come to you. This relationship is important. You can trust him. He’s a friend of mine and I know he will look after you. You have my word.
The third and final sign when you will know to unleash all that’s within you will be the call of a child. This call will come right before the summons to do what we do. Then and only then should you reveal yourself.
Times will get hard, and you will be challenged, but you will rise in excellence. Ride out your destiny, my sunshine. Show no mercy.
Love eternally,
Your Uncle Freddie
“Well, fuck me,” I breathe as I stare down at the tearstained pages.
CHAPTER 35
Loving Husband
Dean
If I thought I loved Ronan before. I know I love him now. For the last month, he’s been such an amazing husband.
We did end up in his uptown penthouse. It was just a better fit for the fur babies. Once Ronan paid a designer to come in and convert one of the spare rooms into an office for me, it was pretty much a no-brainer.
