THIRTEEN

CRUZ

I walked back into my office and found Dan waiting inside. Izzy’s words ran through my head, and for some reason, it hurt more than it should.

Just because we’re having sex doesn’t mean you could include yourself in whatever happens to me.

I flinched as I thought about it. It was like she had pierced my heart, and thinking about it now, I could barely bring myself to forget the look in her eyes when she said the words.

I truly care about her.

Whatever news Izzy got shook her so bad, I saw her stagger even as she held the phone to her ears. I couldn’t tell if her father knew about Kyle yet.

Dan could have told him.

I knew her fear of not being a great mom, and I was only trying to help.

Dan was glaring at me, and I noticed he didn’t flinch when I looked at him.

“We need to talk,” he said to me as I closed the door and walked to my seat.

“Not now,” I replied in a gruff voice and sat.

“Then when? Tell me when the time’s convenient for you to look me in the eye and say you’ve been sleeping with my sister?”

I looked up at him after he asked the question. A muscle in Dan’s jaw ticked, and he gritted his teeth as he continued. “You promised you wouldn’t hurt her,” he said.

“Hurt her? I haven’t hurt her, Dan,” I answered, then looked away again.

“What you’re doing hurts her, and you know it. Cruz, Izzy is the one woman you can’t have. You shouldn’t do this. It isn’t right.”

“Dan…”

“You gave me your word, and now the entire company might even know you both have been together. I overheard you two just now outside, so you can’t even deny it. Who knows who else did!”

“I didn’t plan to deny it,” I said, now getting irritated at Dan’s nagging. My mind was already spinning in different directions. I was trying to figure out what Izzy thought of me. Did she think I didn’t care about her or her affairs?

Just because we’re having sex… Was it just sex to her?

My mind was about to explode with my thoughts. I closed my eyes and rubbed my face with my hands.

Dan walked up to my table and slammed his hands down on it.

“You’re going to stop seeing her,” he said. “You and Izzy would never work, and you know it. You’re the kind of guy who would hurt her and what happens if she runs off again? Who knows when next we would see her? You’re never going to commit to her. She knows that but she’s doing this with you anyway. Doesn’t that tell you that she doesn’t mind getting hurt?”

“I won’t do that, Dan,” I said in a quiet voice at first. My temples were starting to ache, and Dan was making it worse with his words. I needed to think, but I didn’t need to think about what he was saying right now.

“Cruz…”

“Goddamn it, Dan,” I cursed and jerked to my feet.
