I had one of the steadiest hands out there. It took a lot to cause it to waver, and it was why I was good at my part of the business. But seeing someone threaten Sienna nearly brought on the shakes. She closed her eyes and turned her face into my chest, and I glared at my friend who had almost got her killed. “It was just a misunderstanding.” Mariano sounded irritated. “I had it under control.” The gun twitched in my hand. He was incredibly stupid at the worst of times. “Sienna, the guy who is holding you is my business partner.” He then looked at me. “They wouldn’t’ve hurt her.” Sienna was molded to my chest, and it brought back memories of her lying next to me on the lounge chair, looking up at the stars. “Hey.” I rubbed a hand down her back and spoke gently. “Are you all right?”
