But later we donât talk, because like all problems, the problem of Phoebe and her broken heart seems distant when Iâm wrapped in Kaceâs arms making love.
Chapter 6
Kace
Barely making it to the training room before my first class, Iâm too distracted to remember the freshman playerâs name as he sits at the bench next to me preparing to lift an impressive weight. But he stops and looks at me with a troubled frown.
âYou were in a crash last week, right?â
My shoulders tighten as I lift a barbell. âWhat about it?â
âWhat caused it?â
âWhy are you asking?â No way itâs idle curiosity, and I try to keep my face neutral, feeling the tension in my jaw, the strain of the muscles across my shoulders more from the question than the weight.
âA chick from the campus SADD group approached me with a petition to open an investigation of the crash. She claimsââ
âWhat the fuck?â My gut does a nose-dive and I drop the barbell to the floor with an unnerving clang. âI know what she claims. Itâs not true.â I swipe beads of sweat from my brow with my forearm.
âI didnât sign it. Thought you should know. What the hell happened?â
âNot a damn thing. The car was hardly moving when it hit the tree. I . . . wasnât paying attention. No biggie.â The kid nods.
âWhatâd you ever do to this chick from SADD to get her all up in your ass about it?â
âGood fucking question,â I say. Itâs about time I find out. Iâm going to have a talk with whoever it is.
âWhoeverâs behind this has a major hair across their ass for you. Iâve never heard of SADD going after someone who wasnât drinking. Right? Itâs not like distracted driving is a criminal offense. Youâd think you were an ax murderer, this chick was so angry. She was fucking adamant that you be held accountable.â
âI did hit a tree,â I say, staying cool. âMaybe sheâs a tree hugger.â The kid laughs as I bend to pick up the barbell.
âI think she has some kind of thing about athletes getting privileged treatment,â the kid says. I straighten. His words set off alarm bells all through me. The memory of an incident from last semester surfaces.
âWhat was her name?â I ask, the vibration of fear intensifying at the possibility.
âMadelyn Fontaine, aka Mad for SADD. Thatâs what she told me.â The freshman laughs. âYou heard of her?â
Fuck. I have heard of her. Sheâs the one thorn on campus, the one reminder who brings back with stark clarity all the horror of the tragic crash that killed Sky. The crash that killed my relationship with Glory. Or so I thought.
Our relationship was never dead. Only buried under my shit, waiting to be resurrected by Gloryâs bravery. And now that sheâs close to redemption, that weâre both so close to putting it all behind us, Iâll be fucked if Iâm going to let some crazy vindictive chick ruin us all over again. Mad for SADD is
