“You sweating.”

“Just got out the shower.”

His eyes moved past me.

Avery looked down at Serenity.

Then Levin looked at me again.

“Mhm.”

I frowned. “What?”

“Nothing.”

“Nah, don’t do that.”

“Do what?”

“That shit.”

Levin smiled. “I ain’t say nothing.”

He didn’t have to.

I knew my brother.

He had already put enough together.

Maybe he didn’t know how long Avery and me had been fucking. He damn sure didn’t know Carter was mine or anything about Heather.

But he knew Avery had come downstairs looking crazy.

Then I came down thirty seconds later sweating.

He wasn’t stupid.

Before I could say anything else, the front door opened.

“Okay! I’m back.”

Samantha stepped inside and shut the door behind her.

“Now I’m⁠—”

She saw Levin.

Her whole face lit up.

“Levin!”

He turned.

“There she go.”

She walked over and hugged him. “What you doing here?”

“Came to see my nieces and nephews.”
