“Maria?”
“Gabi.” Her sister’s voice was shaky with relief. “Dillon told me that the trade happened last night? That the guy went back to the club? Warren, right?”
“Yeah. Yeah, he did.”
“No problems?”
“Nope. King said it went like clockwork.”
Maria sighed. “And how are you?”
Gabi paused, really thinking. “I’m – stunned.”
“That it’s over at last?”
“Yeah. I still can’t believe it. Not really.”
“Yeah. Me neither.”
“I’ll be going back to work the day after tomorrow,” Gabi said. “Back to Curves. Jax has said I can keep waitressing and I agreed. It’s way better money than cleaning, and I like talking to the staff and customers.” She paused. “Well. Most of them.”
“Oh, right.” Maria sat down next to Dillon on the sofa. “How do you feel about going back? After what happened to you there?”
