CHAPTER FIFTEEN

Beau

I’ve been busy ‘deep cleaning’ my room for about an hour when I eventually hear King coming through the house. I didn’t find anything that was an obvious camera or listening device, but I still don’t trust anyone. I’ve had the music blaring through my room for that very reason.

He’s about to knock on the door when I pull it open and tug him inside. I close the door while checking him over. “You alright?” I ask anxiously, my brows scrunched with concern. All the waiting has me wired with anticipation and I can’t wait to find some shit out. “What went down that had you taking off earlier?”

He runs his fingers through his hair, and I see the familiar signs of blood staining his fingernails. At the same time, his hand falls away and he finally notices the blood splatter. We both move to the bathroom and he turns on the sink, grabbing a shit ton of soap before he starts scrubbing the evidence off his skin.

I go turn the stereo up a little more, pushing the speakers to the max, and then take my place against the counter beside him in the bathroom. I cross my arms, my brow hiking as I tilt my head in the direction of his hands. I know he can handle himself, but I don’t like it that I wasn’t there with him. We always have each other’s backs. With a sigh, I wait for him to start talking, but we need to have this conversation with as few words as possible.

“Always testing,” he whispers, mirroring my thoughts from earlier. “Prepare yourself to get… messy.” Too fucking late, my friend. I know him well enough to have an idea of what he went through tonight, especially with the blood involved.

My jaw flexes and I nod. “Noted. I’ll handle it. You really okay?” I can see his mind spinning out of control and I wish like fuck we could disappear and talk for about twenty-four hours. Maybe that would be enough time for us to catch up on what’s happened the past week.

“How’s Iris? Anyone bother her?” He’s already so attached to her, and she’s barely been back in our lives. Not that I can blame him, she has me twisted up in knots as well. I’m not telling him about it tonight; he’s already dealt with his fair share of shit.

“She’s fine. You know I’d never let anything happen to her.”

“I do. It’s why I asked you to keep an eye on her. I trust you with my life, always.”

“She’s stronger than you give her credit for.” She’s certainly much stronger than she ever was before. He shrugs, and shuts off the water, drying his hands on my hand towel. “We don’t know if she’s ready to handle everything we’re signing up for. Sure, the sorority has their routine hazing bullshit, but what else do we really know about it?” We don’t know anything about their side of things. Hell, for all I know they’re all connected and we’re just the many little pieces to their big fucking game.
