FINN

I didn’t know what I planned to do when Alexis called. After I dropped Mom off at home, I drove aimlessly. I could have called one of my friends, but I wasn’t in the mood to be surrounded by anyone. The ugly secret I’ve been trying to forget seems to be intent on coming to the surface. What if by keeping my mouth shut, I’m doing more harm than good? What if people need to know the evil that’s roaming freely in Triton Cove?

I drove to the beach and stayed there for hours. Not even the pitch-black darkness that descended after sunset drove me away. It was only when my phone rang and I saw Alexis’s name on the screen that I snapped out of my pity party. It was too windy at the beach, so I let the call go to voice mail and only called back when I was in the car. Making her wait was a bonus.

Now I’m driving to her grandparents’ house, going over the speed limit because I can’t fucking wait to see her again. This feeling is nothing I’ve ever felt before, and I can’t put a name to it. Sure, I can come up with excuses, say it’s just a game, but deep down, I know it’s more than that.

Hell, I’m not going to analyze this shit now. I have a favor to gain.

I make it to Alexis’s place in record time, but guessing she’s in the doghouse with her grandparents, I park in front of the gated mansion and text her. Two minutes later, the smaller gate opens, and out comes Alexis, wearing an all-black ensemble that makes her look like a spy. If it weren’t for her flaming-red hair, she’d blend in with the darkness.

After the beach, I put my car’s top down, needing to feel the wind on my face. She veers for the back seat first and dumps the large bag she was carrying there. I glance over my shoulder and confirm it’s her father’s safe. Quickly, she takes the seat next to me and shuts the door hard, keeping her stare ahead.

“What’s the matter, babe?”

“Can we please just go?” She looks at the house.

“Not without a proper greeting.”

I lean across the gap between us, reaching for the back of her head with my hand. Before she can react or pull away, I claim her lips. Funny how I didn’t want to cross that line with her, and now I can’t help kissing her any chance I get.

She only lets me savor her for a few seconds before tensing. I pull back without a word and shift gears, then peel out of the parking spot.

After a minute, she says, “Thank you for picking me up.”

“Don’t thank me yet. I have ulterior motives, remember?”

She snorts. “I didn’t forget. What is it that you want in return?”

“Nothing scandalous.”

“I’m sure we have different views of what’s scandalous.”

“I want the same thing I asked at the pool. Your admission that you want me to fuck you.
