Reign (The Sainthood - Boys of Lowell High #3)(127)
Silence descends as we remember how Randall Solice was found hanging in his cell just before he was due to stand trial on multiple charges.
The FBI didn’t have enough evidence to charge the head of Homeland Security, but the doubt it cast on his reputation was enough for him to retire early under a cloud of suspicion.
Commissioner Leydon was sent to prison, convicted on multiple counts of treachery and murder. He’ll spend the rest of his days behind bars.
Diesel says he was the scapegoat, because someone had to publicly pay, but they buried half the stuff that happened in the process, which I fucking hate. It means the man who ordered my father’s murder is walking around with a generous pension and not a single care in the world. I could go after the ex-head of Homeland Security, but there has to come a point where you draw a line under something, and we made a call, collectively, to let it go.
Maybe, I’ll feel differently in the future, but right now, we’re enjoying our new lives and the freedom we have to choose our own path.
Diesel says the new head of Homeland Security is a good guy and together they are hoping to clean up both organizations, but it’s a tall order because corruption is hard to completely weed out.
_______________
CAZ AND THEO enjoy beers on the patio while the three of us clean up after dinner. Then we join them outside, taking a few quiet moments to appreciate all we’ve fought so hard for.
Although nightfall is creeping in, the weather is unseasonably warm for September, and it’s still suitable for swimming. Something we indulge in regularly, thanks to our own private beach. I stand, pulling my cotton sundress up over my head and tossing it on the lounge chair. “Last one in the water gets cockblocked for a month.” I giggle as I race toward the shore in my bra and panties.
We all know I’m lying, because I can’t even go twenty-four hours without dick, but that fierce competitive streak that burns bright in each of my husbands—and their perpetual willingness to pander to my every whim and need—has them all jumping up and shedding their clothes like it’s an Olympic sport.
Water splashes me as I plunge into the ocean, wading through the waves, counting the seconds before one of them catches up to me. I shriek when strong arms lift me up like I’m weightless and I’m flung over broad shoulders.
Galen slaps my ass. “Naughty, naughty, angel. You know we’ll punish you for that.”
“I’m counting on it.” As I watch Theo, Caz, and Saint plow through the water, with a full heart and a giant smile on my face, I know I can always rely on my husbands to deliver what they promise.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
And so I’ve come to the end of another series, and I’m inhabiting that happy, proud, bittersweet space I’m always in when it’s time to say goodbye to characters I have come to love as if they are real. What a mad crazy ride it has been, and I know Harlow, Saint, Galen, Caz, and Theo will remain in my thoughts for a long, long time.
I hope you have enjoyed reading my Sainthood series as much as I’ve enjoyed writing it!
