I looked down at the top of her head, and for the first time in thirty-four years, I felt the sheer, staggering weight of my own size. At 7’4”, I am used to the world feeling small, fragile, and easily broken. But as I watched her—this slip of a girl with ink on her thumb and a stack of papers that looked like they’d blow away if I breathed too hard—I felt like a bull in a glass cathedral.
My shadow swallowed her whole. It was a familiar sight; my shadow usually meant the end of a conversation or the start of a funeral. But she didn't even flinch. She just turned a page, the crinkle of paper louder to my ears than the roar of the bikes outside.
Run, I thought. Pack up your highlighters and get out of the Altar before you realize what kind of blood pays for the electricity in here.
I smoothed my hand over my beard, the dark hair coarse against my skin, and felt the familiar itch of my pulse. My men were watching. I could feel their eyes—Liam at the end of the bar, Miller by the door—wondering why the Warlord of the O’Riely clan was standing over a college freshman like a stray dog hoping for a scrap.
"The coffee's cold," I said. My voice was a low, jagged rasp that usually made grown men stutter.
