Free Finding Stone (The Stone Brothers Series) (Volume 1) by T. Saint John

good on your record. Do you get to be a cop if you have charges against you?" I hope I am making myself clear.
    "Ah, I see. You want in that pussy too? Make you a deal, whoever gets in first shares the details with the other," he says smirking.
    "Stay away from Molly. I won't tell you again," I say. I give his nose one final squeeze and walk away.
    I feel my phone vibrate. I look down and see it's Evan calling.
    "Hey, what's up?" I ask.
    "Your girl is on the move. She is headed home."
    "Evan, man, do me a favor. Take her to my place." I say.
    "Why?" I can hear it's finally dawning on him.
    "Just do it. If she says no, make something up, kidnap her if you have to."
    "Noah, you do realize that even though Maddox is a cop and I am an attorney, there's some shit we can't get you out of," he laughs. He's knows that I don't mean literally kidnap her.
    "I don't care how you get her there. Just do it," I demand.
    "I'll do my best," he says and I want to thank him for not asking questions.
    "Thanks, and wait with her until I get there."
    "Ok, will do, and by the way, I think you're a crazy fuck. Just putting that out there."

Molly
    I don't feel like partying anymore. It's not guilt over the punch. It's the embarrassment of Noah still treating me like a child. Why can't he see me on a normal day? Deciding to leave, I walk over to the table and feel like everyone is watching me.
    "Sorry, I think I am going to head home," I say defeated.
    "Molly, I'm so sorry. I should have warned you about Aaron. He is an alcoholic and can be a hothead. He is going to check into a rehab clinic," Kerrigan rushes to explain.
    This is not on her. He did this shit. "Please Kerrigan, this has nothing to do with you. If you're afraid of him, talk to Maddox."
    "I've been telling her to do that," Lani chimes in.
    "I'm going to go check on him. Again Molly, I'm sorry," Kerrigan says as she rushes to the door.
    Brayden gets up to hug me. Missy reaches for my hand. I can see in her eyes that she doesn't want to embarrass me any more than I already am.
    "Maybe we can try this again next weekend." I am feeling horrible about how out of control this night has been. I'm glad they're staying. I need to be alone, but I'm thankful for my new friends.
    "I think we should go to a movie next weekend. Less likely to end in a blood bath," Jessica cracks.
    "Sure," I say feeling only a little better. I turn to walk towards the door and I almost cry thinking about how I thought this night would play out and how it actually turned out.
    When I get out the front door, I hear, "Molly wait up." I turn to see the guy who hit on me on my first day of work running towards me. He was also with Maddox when he was trying to calm me down.
    "I’m still not interested," I say, not wanting to deal with any more testosterone. He laughs.
    "Look, this is going to sound crazy, but you're supposed to come with me." I look at him wondering if this is a pick up line.
    "Excuse me. I am supposed to come with you? No. I am going home," I push past him.
    "Shit, just hear me out. Noah gave me orders to take you to his place and to wait with you until he gets home."
    "Why does Noah want me at his place?” I want to scream. "You tell Noah I said to fuck off. I don't mess with guys who already have a girlfriend."
    He looks at me confused. "Hell, I've known my brother for 33 years," he smiles and continues, "he doesn't date and he sure as fuck doesn't have a girlfriend."
    Okay, these three good-looking brothers are the bane of my existence. Noah doesn't date? Who is the blonde? She is something to him.
    "Look, I get that he is your brother, but you covering for him pisses me off." God. He looks pissed and I realize I can piss the Stone brothers off without even trying.
    A cab is getting close and he signals it over. "Get the fuck in. I am not covering for him. I see why you get under his skin," he says, still pissed.
    "I am NOT getting in that cab!"
    I hear him say, "Fuck," as he places his hand around my
