Bryce closed the distance between them and pinned him in place. Josh heard the sound of metal seconds before he felt the cold steel of Bryce’s dagger pressed against his throat. “Maybe we should show this fag what we do with mangy mutts trying to brown nose.”

Elaine’s command raced down Josh’s spine. Even though he didn’t dare look up, he felt the trio go rigid with fear. The sound of Elaine’s high-heeled shoes clicking against the cobblestone pathway that surrounded the house was as sharp as her tone. Will and Terrence parted before her, having the good sense to offer low muttered greetings. Bryce stood aside, but said nothing, his glare still locked on Josh.
