    Summary

    Joel thinks about his crossbows, about his explosives, about all the ways he could do this. He’s thought plenty about how he’d kill Scott, given the chance. He thinks about Grian screaming for Joel to kill him. He thinks about handing Jimmy the bomb that killed him.

    He grabs his sword instead, and climbs up onto the bed until he’s above Scott, knees bracketing his chest, the sharp point of the blade placed over Scott’s sternum. “If you vanish and turn up somewhere else—”

    “You don’t have time to spare threatening me,” Scott interrupts. Joel stabs him before he can finish the sentence.

    Jimmy’s dead, and Joel’s not handling it well. Unfortunately for him, Scott’s handling it even worse.

    Summary

    He thinks, particularly petty and vicious, that he’ll probably tell Scott to kill him, if it gets down to that. He’ll probably tell Scott to do it, and Scott won’t, because he’s honourable, and he doesn’t like to take from those who don’t have as much. Unless they take from him first, and then all bets are off. Which is the way Martyn likes him the most, when Scott lets himself be mean. Makes him want to be mean right back, the two of them sharpening each other.

    or: Martyn returns to the Coral Isles to grovel. Scott makes sure he’s doing it properly.

    Summary

    “But you don’t want that, do you,” said Scott. “I know you. You don’t want someone to treat you nice, yeah? You want someone who knows how to make you heel.”

    “You don’t know what I want,” Jimmy said stubbornly.

    “Of course I do,” Scott told him. “I’m your husband.”

    For a second, the scowl on Jimmy’s face wavered, like he was going to laugh. Then he caught himself. “I don’t want to be bullied.”

    “What an inelegant term,” Scott said. “I prefer ‘trained.’”

    Summary

    Martyn sighed. “It was just—everything was different, without you. I hate it. Makes me get sloppy. Jumpy. Not a good look. And trying to keep up the usual veneer of confidence so no one could tell I was going to pieces.”

    Ren said, “I could tell.”

    “Well, that’s you. It doesn’t count,” Martyn said. “Anyway, it was awful. I was scared and lonely and cold all the time.”
