And did I just betray Marcus somehow? Ryland shakes his head. I’m sure I didn’t say any of that out loud, but he seems to have read my thoughts somehow. “Marcus knows.” His full lips, swollen and red from our bruising kisses, ghost over mine once more. “He knows how I feel about you. How Theo feels about you. He’s always known. And he meant what he said in the alley that night. I’m sure of it. We’ve never shared a woman before, but we all knew you were different from the very first moment you came into our lives.”
