Likely loser in war

Usage examples of deuce.

Dak Lyons was on the same list as Deuce that he was a friend, but it was the only hedge she had in what was a pretty dismal situation.

Anger, an emotion Deuce was fast becoming familiar with, set a muscle in his cheek to ticcing.

Even from across the room, Deuce could feel the waves of soothing comfort in with which Bohdan surrounded the baby.

She had to stop thinking of Deuce as her personal miracle and start thinking of him as a man she was about to put in a horrible position.

Of all the things Deuce had expected his brother to say, that was not it.

For sure, Deuce had touched her while she was unconscious, which meant there was no going back.

Eden turned back to Deuce so fast her hair swung out, bouncing into her eyes.

Instead of an argument, Deuce gave her his support, one hand moving behind her back while the other slid around to the back of her head, completely taking over the responsibility of her weight.

Once again it was just Deuce staring down at her, his expression calm.

Whether he was baring them at his brother, or the loss he could feel looming, Deuce was not sure.

As he pulled her back against him, his hair fell over her chest, cocooning her in an intimacy that had everything in Deuce tensing in outrage.

No matter what Deuce said, the simple truth was, until her grandfather was dead, the baby was in danger.

Eden staggered under the flood of energy that surged into the room, falling back against Deuce, who stood solid against the wave.

As soon as she was sure Deuce had Jalina, she turned and wrapped her arms around his lean waist and hugged him with all the relief she felt.

She had a split second to see a dark-haired man with a broad, handsome face and a gun hanging off his shoulder standing there with a tray in his hands, before Deuce stepped into her line of vision.
