"Rea," Jace said weakly, his voice soft, like he was trying to stopfrom doing something reckless.
It wasn't Wayne he was worried about-it was me.

Why wouldn't he? Jace was barely conscious, Isabel wasn't young anymore, and I was a pregnant woman. He thought he had all the power.
Wayne smirked. "Rea, think about it. You've seen how things are. Cwith me, and you and your baby will be safe. Do you really want your child to grow up without parents-or worse, not grow up at all? Hand over what Hayden gave you, and I'll make sure you live in wealth and comfort. Stay here or move wherever you want-it's your choice." Even now, he was trying to play the nice guy.
"Wayne," I said, "if I did that, how could I look my child in the eye? Knowing their happiness cfrom others' suffering? That it was paid for with dirty deals? They'd hatefor it." As I spoke, I felt a small flutter in my lower abdomen. It couldn't be real-not this early. But the thought of the life growing insidemadefeel more certain than ever.
This baby was a miracle, a little piece of Hayden that somehow found its way to me. When he was living as Xander, we'd only done it once-but that one night had changed everything. Wayne snorted.

So Lena had called him for help.
But how had Aaron replaced Wayne's men so quickly? My mind raced for answers, but Aaron was already face-to-face with Wayne. "People like to say you're the polite dutifulson," Aaron said, his tone ice-cold. "Today, I'm seeing just how much that's worth." Wayne stiffened, but he forced a calm facade. "Aaron Ace, we've got no business together, no personal ties. Isn't this a little... much?" Aaron slid one hand casually into his pocket. "If you hadn't messed with someone from my family, I wouldn't be here." It was clear as day-he was here for Lena.
