Devon dropped his eyes from my face and suddenly became very interested in his shoes.
“Devon?” I asked.
“This was inevitable,” Devon told me. “Each side was looking for a reason to break the truce.”
“And I’ve just given everyone the reason they were looking for,” I breathed.

“Who’s the informant?” I asked.
“Fred Gallagher,” Devon replied, as he got into the passenger’s seat.
“Seriously?”
“He was the only one who came forward and was willing to meet you.”
“He’s unreliable,” I scoffed. “And that sorry excuse of a bar he runs is a front.”
“I’m aware, but he wants to talk to you,” Devon said. “What was I supposed to do? And we have to start somewhere.”
“Where are we meeting?” I asked.

“I’ve noticed that you’ve been riding her a bit hard.”
“Not as hard as I would like,” I replied suggestively.

“What’s obvious?” I said defensively.
Devon refused to answer my question. “She’s not your type in any case.”
“Oh, and you know my type, do you?” I asked.
“All I know is that Mila’s not it,” Devon said. “She’s sensitive…and innocent.”
“I don’t know if she would appreciate you saying that about her.”
