CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE

Eli

A strange sensation tickles the back of my neck. It’s a feeling I know all too well, since I’ve caught Rebecca watching me more than once. Looking in her direction will only lead to thoughts I’ve been trying to block all morning.

I know she has questions; it’s been on her expression since we woke up. Right now, however, I don’t have the answers she’s seeking. I don’t trust myself to give her the explanation she deserves. Answering honestly when my thoughts are still jumbled would be cruel. It will come out wrong, no matter how I try to explain it.

I started what I started because I want her. I want her so badly my dick hurts, but we have a baby to think about. And the baby is the only thing that matters right now. Last night might not be a mistake, but it wasn’t a wise decision on my part either. I played with her feelings, and I messed with our future. Risking it when things have been so good was a fail on my part.

Giving her answers right now when the answers don’t even make sense to me, will only cause more harm.

From the corner of my eye, I watch her stumble and grip the table, her complexion pale. I take a step in her direction, but Reid’s scream pulls my attention away.

“Get away from me, you freak,” Reid cries once more.

I gently drop Jasmine to her feet and watch as she runs over to Maddox. Hayden, decked out in black shorts, a black blazer, and a white T-shirt, holds a whip up before slashing it through the air, landing the feathered tip to the floor at his feet.

“Who the fuck gave her a whip?” I ask.

“There’s a bag full of the shit in the donation box,” Jaxon answers, dropping the box on the table.

The whip whistles through the air once more, hitting Reid on his bicep.

I grimace. “Shit!”

The whip leaves an angry red welt on his arm.

“What are you doing?” Reid growls. “That hurts.”

“I heard you like it rough,” she mocks, without her normal sass.

“Jesus, I’m going to get some fresh air,” Jaxon hisses. “I can’t take another minute of them bickering.”

“Yeah, I’ll join you. Harry should be arriving soon with the last shipment, but there’s something I need to talk to you about.”

He jerks his chin and I follow him out, ignoring the ball and chain handcuffed to Reid’s wrist.

I don’t want to know what that has been used for.

The heat engulfs us the second we step outside. He heads to his truck, flipping the back down before jumping up and taking a seat.

“Fuck, that’s hot,” I hiss as I take a seat next to him.

“What’s up?”

“I think I might know why Liam is no longer taking payment for his services on the Black situation.”

His body tenses, and he goes on alert. “What do you know?”

I run down everything Rebecca told me and give him a moment to absorb the information. Last night, with Rebecca in those skimpy clothes, I couldn’t really process anything else.
