CHAPTER 17

SETH

What in the fuck is she thinking! She can’t go back to that asshole!

I was thoroughly exhausted, but not enough to curb my anger and frustration.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

I’d been out for a very long run, and I was currently in my home gym beating the hell out of a punching bag that was mounted from the ceiling.

Maybe I was wiped out physically, but the rest of me was still so furious that I couldn’t seem to get enough activity to keep the image of Riley willingly kissing Easton out of my head.

Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump!

“Son of a bitch!” I cursed, slamming my hand into the bag one more time before I bent over to catch my breath.

I shucked off my gloves and straightened, trying to decide on what kind of torture I could put myself through next.

I eyed my Peloton bike and decided that would be next on my list. I could work up a hell of a sweat once I got going.

Right now, I’d go through every piece of equipment in my gym if it meant I’d be so exhausted and sore that it would take my mind off Riley.

No doubt, I’d never scrub the visions of Easton devouring the woman I wanted from my brain, but I sure as hell wished I could make it hurt . . . less.

I’d seen it.

The memory was fresh in my head.

Riley had been fully cooperating in that embrace.

If she hadn’t, I would have killed the bastard.

Truth was, I cared too damn much about her not to want her to have whatever made her happy.

He’ll make her fucking miserable.

That was the part that killed me.

Maybe she’d never stop seeking her mother’s approval.

Maybe she couldn’t.

Shit! I knew damn well I’d find myself at her doorstep eventually, trying to convince her that she didn’t want to be with a piece of slime to feel like she belonged.

Truth was, she belonged with me.

Riley had been mine from the first moment I’d seen her. Maybe I hadn’t realized that back then, but I knew it now. No doubt in my mind.

I could make her happy. She’d been smiling, laughing, lighthearted at the barbecue until that cockroach had crawled out of the wall.

Had she invited him?

There was no other rational explanation as to why Easton was even there.

“What in the fuck are you doing here?” my brother Noah’s voice asked from behind me.

I swung around. “I fucking live here,” I shot back, not in the mood for any of Noah’s patriarchal advice. I already knew I shouldn’t be thinking of talking to Riley after she’d been kissing another guy. “What are you doing here? How did you get in?”

He held up a full key chain. “You gave me a key. And you didn’t answer the door. Your Range Rover was in the garage, so I figured you were here somewhere.”

“I’m working out. I don’t have time to talk at the moment,” I grumbled.

He gazed my way, apparently assessing me. “Looks to me like you’ve already done your workout.
