Eruption (The Hunted, #3)

by Ivy Smoak

"That's not what it looked like to me. It looked like he was fucked up and needed you more than ever." "If you're going to make me feel guilty, you can just let me off here. James kicked me out. Do you think I don't want to be there for him? That's not fair, Rob. You don't know the whole story. And he might need me, but he sure as hell doesn't want me." "Okay. Newark it is then."

Looking through Rob's drawers for a comb reminded me of doing the same when it was James' place. When I was a student and he was my professor. I loved spending the night with him. I loved the way he made me feel. For the first time in my life, I had felt alive. I looked at my reflection in the mirror and then quickly looked away. I didn't want to think about him. Especially if he was back home upset about something I didn't really do. Or worse, getting over it with Mason's help. Just like Mason had helped him find a great location for a bachelor party. James cheated on me.
