Because the very last thing I need in my life is someone who makes me feel like there’s not enough oxygen in my lungs when I’ve only just caught my breath.

I don’t want to be the one-night stand who’s used to scratch an itch. I want a woman like Winter Hamilton—beautiful, and smart, and sharp-tongued—to look at me and see a future.

“But you’ve been with Vivi all night. All morning.” He shrugs, a gentle smile stretching over his too-handsome features. “I don’t need a special trophy for parenting. I love it, Winter. Don’t worry. Go enjoy your manicure while you can still get one.”

I’m mad at you for torpedoing my training session with someone who doesn’t constantly hit on me. Why did you do that?” I shake my head as I breeze past her, through the turnstile and onto the gym floor. Might as well be honest with her, so she isn’t confused about what I want. “Because I’m the only one who’s going to be putting his hands on you in those tight fucking pants, Tink.”

“I don’t understand what’s happening here. The things you say. The things you do. Everything that’s happened. It doesn’t make sense. I can’t figure it out.” He tilts his head, as if he’s trying to figure me out from a different perspective. “What’s happening is Miss Independent met the treat-her-like-a-princess guy, and she’s freaking out.”
Bea

We were just talking, laughing. Heading in a good direction. And she’s going to run away from me now? After everything? Nah. Not today, Tink. I stride after her. Agitated. Frustrated. And fucking done with Winter Hamilton running from me.

Winter: Please don’t do something that will land you in prison. Theo: Can’t make any promises. Winter: Please? I’d still bail you out, but I’d be mad at you. Theo: You being mad at me gets me hard. Angry sex is fun. This is not a deterrent. Winter: Maybe I wouldn’t bail you out at all. Theo: Nah. You’d miss my dick too much. Winter: No. I’d miss *you*.

“That night we were reckless.” His voice cracks. “But god, I’d be reckless with you over and over again if it means ending up here.”
