I don’t know what pissed me off more. The fact that she wasn’t there for me, or the fact that she was cheering another guy’s name right in front of me.

“Don’t come cheering for others at my game,” he growls the words against my throat. “W-what?” “Don’t stand there calling another guy’s name in my fucking presence.” I smile, incredulous. “Are you obsessed with me or something?” “Call it an obsession or foolishness or fucking madness,” he grunts, squeezing my throat. “But you keep your eyes on me.”

“You can be upset and angry all you want, but don’t bring another man in my presence again.” “Or what?” “I’ll end them. Every last fucking one of them.” My lips part. “You…you wouldn’t.” “Try. Me.” His breath tickles my skin and he darts his tongue out to lick the shell of my ear before he murmurs in dark, hot words, “I dare you to fucking try me, Princess.”

A Mercedes that I’ve never seen before is sitting beside me with the engine running. Nicole is in the driver’s seat, glaring down at me after she almost hit me.

I turn to watch the Mercedes exiting the driveway. It seems super familiar, but where have I seen it? “Did Nicole change cars?” “Oh, that.” Sarah dusts off my uniform as I watch where the car disappeared to in a stupor. “It’s an old one, always huddled in the garage. Miss Nicole wanted some changes made to her car, so she’s using that one temporarily. It hasn’t been out from the garage in years, I’m surprised it still runs.”

My lips part when I make out Kimberly.

Being tiny, the first thing I notice about Kimberly’s friend is her long legs that go on for miles — okay, that’s a bit overdramatic. But they’re so toned, like she’s an athlete. She has pale skin and electric blue eyes that shine with malice the more she shoots daggers in Aiden’s direction.

“Did you fuck Daniel after you put something in his drink?” Her face turns white. “I-I don’t know what you’re talking about.” I pull out my phone and show her two clips that prove her implication. She put pills in two shot glasses and offers one to Daniel. Then he takes the other and shoves it in Astrid’s hand. Nicole begins shaking and swallows hard. “Now,” I continue, “there are no cameras inside the rooms, so tell me, were you fucking Daniel while Astrid had her accident?” “K-King, I… I…didn’t mean for it go that far, I promise.”

“Astrid…” he trails off as if he can’t find the words. “I love you. I’m fucking crazy about you, Princess.” Tears surge into my eyes, but I push them back. Be strong. You have to be strong. “And I love you, Levi,” I murmur the words as if I’m afraid of them.
