Rereading Fish & Chips for the umpteenth time. Chapter 8: Zane and Ty discover that Del Porter was hired to spy on his husband.

“Ty stopped and put his back to the nearest wall, looking over Zane’s shoulder first and then meeting Zane’s eyes. “I was sitting out on the deck watching the storm roll in,” he started in a low voice. “Armen found me out there. The short of it is that he hired Del to get close to Corbin, to spy on him. He came to me to make certain I was still up to the job. Wanted to make sure I wasn’t too attached to my mark,” he spat out.

Zane swallowed on his surprise and cleared his throat. “He hired Del to spy on Corbin—on his own husband? And Del agreed to it? Jesus.” He set his hands on his hips. “Can this case get any more fucked up?”

Ty closed his eyes in frustration. “Del is a merc, Zane,” he said through gritted teeth. “He’s not married to Corbin because he loves him. He married him because he was hired to seduce him.”
