Mastering Will Read Online Free PDF Page A

usually makes it.” Lindi blinked back the sudden onslaught of tears. He wasn’t the crying type. He wouldn’t start now when Will might be in danger.
    “Sure, I’ll take some.” Brian settled on the other side of the bar. “Da says some guys snatched Will. Why?”
    “For money.” Lindi repeated the situation with the art forger.
    Brian narrowed his eyes. “So you have Feds watching your place?”
    “Yes. Is that a problem?” Lindi did some research last night after he talked to Will’s father. He had a good idea why Will tried to hide his past. When he got Will back, they would be having a long conversation about keeping secrets. There were apparently too many between them. Will wouldn’t be able to sit down for a week when Lindi was finished with him.
    Brian hesitated before answering. “No, but it might make it difficult to retrieve Will.”
    “How many of you are coming?”
    “Three. Me, Da and my other brother Cain. Will is the youngest of us.”
    Lindi held back the urge to pounce on Brian’s words. He yearned to hear more about Will’s childhood and what led to him hide from his past, but Lindi wanted to hear about it from Will, not from his brother.
    “I don’t know how many people are in the counterfeiting ring. I can find Will, but I don’t know if I can extract him on my own.”
    “How can you find him?” Brian asked.
    Lindi poured two cups of coffee from the brewing carafe and slid one over to Brian. He wasn’t ready to confess how to find Will quite yet. He had to make sure they were both on Will’s side before he told them anything.
    “Tell me about your father. Why isn’t he here?” Aengus had said they were all going to be there in the morning.
    “Da had to let some of his associates know he was going to be in town. He’s thrilled to know Will is alive.” Brian rubbed his cheek. Lindi hadn’t noticed the bruise on it before. “I’d convinced him Will had died so he’s a bit put out with me.”
    “Why would you do that? I can’t imagine anything worse than a parent thinking his child was dead.”
    Brian sighed. “You have to understand. Will has never been like the rest of us. He doesn’t enjoy violence. Shaking someone down doesn’t make him happy. He’s always worried about someone being hurt. He’s more delicate. No one was really surprised when he told us he was gay.”
    “So you decided he was better off dead!” Lindi clenched his fists and regretted leaving his guns in his closet. He’d pulled them out of storage last night after his friends left. He polished and cleaned the Glock and the sniper rifle so they’d be ready when he went to extract his sub. “I can guarantee that not all gay men are delicate. I’d be happy to show you.”
    Lindi regarded Brian with little favor.
    “Hey, now don’t be jumping to conclusions. I love my brother, but Da has always been a bit obsessive about Will because he’s the youngest. Will’s only chance for a regular life was if our father thought he was dead. When he ran away, I took his sweet good-bye note and fabricated his death so he’d be left alone. When you called, it changed everything. Da is going to want to bring Will home where he can be safe.”
    Lindi’s mouth dropped open. “Oh, hell no. You can’t have my boy.” He crossed his arms over his chest. “He’s mine. No way are you taking him anywhere. I don’t care who you are.”
    Brian shrugged. “You can take it up with the old man. I did what I could to help my brother.”
    “I don’t care who your father is; Will belongs with me.”
    “I’m sure my brother will have the final say. I said Will looks delicate, but he can be a vicious bastard, he just doesn’t enjoy it. He once took out a New York mobster with a butterfly knife and a well-placed kick.”
    That didn’t sound like his pet. Will wouldn’t do something like that without a good reason.
    “Why?”
    “Why what?”
    “Why did Will attack him? That doesn’t sound like my
