Across the line

Andrew Fray’s life was … nothing special, but it wasn’t anything to complain about either. Life as a courier for a mobster boss isn’t that bad. That is until he finds himself on the wrong side of the law, and in the custody of Constable Holly Adams. Given a choice between cooperating with Holly and allowing his work for his boss to endanger innocent lives, Andrew chooses the former, becoming a police informant. Three years later, Andrew has turned his life around, and is lawfully employed as a PI. His relationship with Holly has also evolved. They are best friends, and while neither have admitted it, both harbor an unspoken love for each other. It’s not until Holly is given an undercover assignment where she has to play the part of a girlfriend to a dangerous mobster that both are forced to confront the true feelings they have for each other. Across the Line is created by Alex Miller, an eGlobal Creative Publishing signed author.

Chapter 30: Across the Line

Holly Adams POV:

“This is your brother?” Raf asked me.

I gave him my best smile, and for once, I didn’t need to fake it while I was around him. “The very same.” I tried to put my arm around Andy’s shoulders and pull him in, but I ended up getting in the way of the guard cleaning the cut on his forehead, so I had to stop. “Rafael King, meet Andrew Blaq,” I introduced, even though I knew Andy knew who Raf was.

“Your brother,” Raf repeated.

For a long moment, I was afraid Raf wasn’t buying it. Then he stepped back to Andy and offered him his hand properly.

“It’s good to meet you,” Raf told Andy happily. “Angela has told me a lot about you.”

“I’ve heard a lot about you too,” Andy replied as he shook Raf’s hand, though I knew it was no good thing.

“Your timing couldn’t be more perfect,” Raf continued. “Please, let’s go speak somewhere privately.”

“Honey, maybe that should wait,” I tried to protest. “I should get back in the cage.”
