I walked her back into the lobby of the hotel.

“Thanks for lunch.” She rubbed her slightly extended stomach that protruded from her dress. “It was delicious.”

“It’s the least I could do since I was such an asshole.”

She chuckled. “Well, I hope you’re an asshole more often.”

Both of us stopped when we spotted Hades heading toward us in a deep blue suit with a black tie. His eyes hinted at the underworld.

I slid my hands into my pockets so I wouldn’t punch him. “This should be good…”

Hades reached us, and for the first time in his life, he ignored his wife. His wrath was fixated on me. “Leave my wife alone, Damien.” He spoke quietly so everyone else in the lobby wouldn’t hear the deadly threat. “Get your own damn friends.”

Yeah…it really seemed like he still cared.

Sofia stared at her husband like she didn’t recognize him. “Hades…”

I thought he couldn’t hurt me anymore, but he managed to get that blade right between my ribs. My gaze was hollow, but I was bleeding inside.

He continued that unblinking stare. “Go.” He nodded to the door.

Sofia grabbed him by the arm. “Stop acting like this. Now.”

Hades listened to his wife but still didn’t look at her.

“I’m the one who’s been texting him every day because I miss him,” Sofia said. “He’s my friend, and I don’t give a damn if you don’t like it.”

He finally turned his gaze on her.

“Damien would never hurt me, and you know it.” She started to pull him away. “I’ll see you later, Damien.” She took her husband down the hall so they could talk in private in her office.

I watched them walk away and knew I’d get another earful at the bank.
