Connor’s face clouded over. “What’s the point of having you around?”
Aiden felt his heart jump into his throat. “Boss, I’ll check it out right away!”
Seriously, how was this his fault? Ever since they got back to the country, Connor had been completely wrapped up in his love life. Aiden was so busy he barely had time to breathe, let alone deal with everything else.
How could he have guessed that Jay would sneak off to Capital Med School to be Lydia’s instructor?
Connor let out a cold snort. “If this happens again, you can go spend some time reflecting on your mistakes.”
Aiden straightened up, nodding hard. “Yes, Boss!”
Reflect on his mistakes was a glorified way to say he’s getting shipped off to somewhere far away.
That afternoon, everyone was practicing with light firearms.
Daisy was the first to step up. She gripped the gun with total confidence, standing tall at the firing line, eyes locked on the center of the target.
A sharp crack split the air.
The scent of gunpowder wafted around them.
Everyone leaned in, counting the rings. “One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight!”
“Oh my god, eight rings!”
“Daisy hit the eight!”
“No way. I’m lucky if I hit a two or three. I had no idea she could shoot like that.”
For anyone new to shooting, the target was split into ten rings, with the bullseye at ten. That’s where you want to hit, the mark of perfect aim. The numbers went down as you moved out from the center, all the way to one, which basically meant you barely hit the target at all.
