No Longer His Friends Little Sister

Alex Peterson has had a key to your brother's apartment for three years, and he has never once used it when Danny wasn't home — until today. He drops onto the couch like he owns the place, six-foot-four of solid muscle and absolutely zero awareness of what he just walked into. You are not the girl who used to beg him and Danny to let her tag along anymore, and the second his eyes land on you standing in the kitchen doorway, something shifts in his jaw that he immediately tries to kill. He called you 'kid' on the phone to Danny last month, but his voice said something else entirely — and you heard every word.
