I return to his face: I put ointment on his cracked lips, soothe the hematoma around his eye with cold compresses, and spread it carefully over his swollen cheek. I kiss his head gently.

“I’ll be right back, my love. Rest.” I lightly run my thumb over his

cheek.

I leave the cell with quick, firm steps. My expression hardens; my

calm shatters like broken glass. The fury rising now isn’t just anger-

it’s a collarless animal, hot and blind, ready to devour whoever is in

“We’re doing well, thanks for asking, Adrian.”

I give a wide smile, enough to shake his arrogance for a moment.

“I’m glad you’re well,” I say dryly. “Because I want to fight you,

Navarro. Clean hands, a fair fight. Or do you prefer something dirty,
