I walked over to the counter and started digging out what he’d brought with him so I wouldn’t give in to the urge to deck him. I wasn’t a jealous person, but I knew what Edric was like with women. He didn’t stick around for long after he got what he wanted. He had an almost allergic reaction to commitment of any kind. I didn’t know why anyone put up with his shit. Well, I suppose I did because everyone talked about how charming he was, but I knew the real Edric, not the happy-go-lucky façade he liked to put up.
