As he heard the words, Kai froze in the concealed entrance of Isabel’s apartment, Liam on his heels. It hadn’t been his intention to eavesdrop, but when the discussion had turned to the reason why she had left him all those years ago, he became entranced, his mind going blank.
He knew it wasn’t right, she was confiding in the women around her and not him, but there was no way in hell he didn’t want to find out. Countless times he had imagined the best and worst, but this revelation was the most unexpected of all. His brain was like a frozen computer, unable to process the information.
Zoe was the first to speak.
“Whoa. Really? That’s so freaking incredible. I have so many questions! What was your name?”
He heard the woman laughing at Zoe’s excited tone until Isabel spoke again. Her voice, low at first, took a more assured tone. “My mom found my stage name and called me Mercury Heat.”
Liam gasped behind him and lowered his voice. “I knew I had seen her face somewhere! But she had long purple hair in the videos.”
Kai elbowed him hard. He wanted to do much more, but preferred to stay silent for the moment. Spying on the women wouldn’t go down well, but he finally had the opportunity to have some answers to his questions.
Movement behind him drew his attention as Liam tensed, both of them reaching for their guns when he saw Lazarus and Aleksei standing on the other side of the entry. Liam told them to stay quiet. They both reached for their weapons in preparation, but Liam gestured for them to stand down.
“What’s going on?” Lazarus whispered.
Liam heard the worry in his voice. “We’ve just learned that Isabel was Mercury Heat.” Liam’s voice had a gossipy tone that put Kai’s nerves on end.
Aleksei emitted a low whistle, but Lazarus’s silence was telling, meaning Kai was going to have a conversation with his older brother.
“We can’t stay here. We can’t spy on them like this. And there is no way in hell that Gabrielle doesn’t know you are here. Fuck, that we’re all here right now.”
Kai cursed in his head. Lazarus was right. Gabrielle knew he was coming back today to discuss the details of Isabel’s return to work. This was a setup.
