FELIX
A rush of blood pounds between my ears as this woman’s words replay h my head.
“My nis Angela Riotre, mul | was
hoping to find my husband.”
Oh my God. Why is she here? What does she want? Where is RAINIER!
“Your husband?” | question, keeping close to door as | watch her and inwardly kicking myself for pretending not
to know exactly who she
“Yes,” she replies. “Sheriff Rainier Rlotte,” she says slyly, as if she believes she’s dropping the bomb on me.
I don’t know how it is I'm able to smile as cattily as | do, but | manage. As you can see. he’s not here
Her eyes narrow and she spins slowly, surveying the room before her eyes catch on the discarded navy blue shirt

She
doesn’t pick it up. Instead, she turns to face me, walking around the couch to cup on my other side. She's
pretty, but not gorgeous... and Rainier... is better than gorgeous. Not that it should matter what she looks like in
comparison to me, but I'd be lying i said that it didn’t. Right at this moment, I'm sending the good lord a quick
prayer of thanks for the tits and ass that he blessed me. He may not have givengood parents or an easy life,
but he took his sweet tin crafting this bitch and that’s a fact. | may not have the ring yet, but | won this
round.
Yet Felix? Seriously?
“Yes, | can see that he’s not here. That much is obvious. But you do know him, don’t you?” she says quietly, her
voice edged with malice.
| flatten my gaze into one of boredom and simply stare back into her eggs. Not wanting to lie, but not wanting to
give her any more than
she’s already gotten by coming here.
She nods, taking my pointed silence as a yes to her question. Shaking her head arrogantly, she eyes me, a
sinister smile playing along her lips. “You have no idea what you're getting into. No idea what kind of monster
you've just welcomed between your legs.”
“Excuse me?” | snap. “You don’t know a damn thing about me. If you did you'd know that | quite like having a
monster between my legs. In fact, | prefer it. | guess | should be grateful that the woman didn’t chere crying

Suddenly.

She studiescrudely, her critical eyes glaring first at my bustline, then at my hip. Her lips pinch as she curses
behind her teeth, but it's not until she raises her eyes to my neck that the first traces of red bloom across her

network of soulless gang bangers, but could definitely handle a dumb bitch or two. ‘If you don’t mind, | was
looking forward to a quiet night alone.” | pull the door open a touch more in gesture for her to leave,
She ignores me. Her wild eyes seemingly glued to that spot on nty neck, “Alone. Ha!” she snaps, still not
meeting my gaze. “Were you alone last night too? Or was that when that bustard bit you?”

“The world is suddenly a very strange place,” | comment as The parks the Hummer between sCadillac and a
black Beamer. “Weird,” | say as we climb out of the car. “Hart didn’t say anything about anyone else being here.”
Tandora’s eyes suddenly flash from hazel to gold then back again. “Someone is up there with her,” she hisses
and my eyes instmitly shoot to the window of my one-night apartment.

Without really knowing why we do it, we enter the back of the har soundlessly. It's unlocked, just as Bart
promised it would be and | wonder if this visitor entered the sway we did or if Felix let them in another way.
The only reason Bart was okay with leaving it unlocked is because of the new camera system the guys had
installed. That, and we were supposed to be here right after sundown. Unfortunately, that’s not how things
played out and now there might be someone dangerous inside.

A woman's voice carries out just as we reach the landing. “Were you alone last night too? Or was that when that
bastard bit you?”
“Ohhhh shit,” Tadora hisses under her
her breath as the pair of us saunter into sight.
“Hi!” | say brightly.
Felix’s head jerks in my direction, surprise and apprehension warping her normally friendly face. “Of course,” she

“Of course, what?” | inquire softly, studying the sudden tension in her muscles and the look of absolute betrayal
on her face.

curiously.
“You got anything to drink in here, Goldilocks? Or should | go downstairs and raid old Barty boys’ cabinets?
Taedora asks, spinning graciously on one foot like a ballerina and ending with a charming smile.
