I kicked at Kason’s front door, the rush of my heartbeat as loud as the wind, and jabbed my elbow into his doorbell without releasing it. “Let me in!” I spun around to make sure I hadn’t been followed even though I’d lost the sound of the tapping shoes in a neighborhood I’d never been to. I’d walked and walked in the arctic night to lose the tail that maybe I’d only imagined was following me.

Either way, once I filled Kason in on everything I’d found out, surely he would stop guarding his holy loins and fuck me already. It was his life at risk if he didn’t, after all, as well as thousands of witches who’d been dictated over by the fae for far too long. Because if the man who’d killed my family didn’t reappear, the Diamond Dogs would. And because the Diamond Dogs had funneled out my thoughts about Kason, they knew exactly who he was.

The door finally clicked open, and Kason leaned against the frame with an eyebrow lifted. He crossed his arms, his tight, black shirt sleeves pushed up to his elbows and the frayed edges of his jeans dragging over the tops of his bare feet.

“Why should I let you in?” he asked, his dark eyes flashing.

“I found out some things…” I said, barely able to push the words out between chattering teeth. “Things that still don’t make a lot of sense. Let me in, and I’ll try to explain.”

He shook his head. “We tried that already, remember? The last time I let you in, you brought a trio of winged dog friends with you.”

“Don’t be a dick.” I winced at the frozen rigidity in his expression even though it was totally justified. “I’m cold.”

He shrugged. “What if I’m not done fucking myself, Hadley? Are you going to throw another tantrum if I leave you out here?”

I reeled as if I’d been punched in the chest. The biting wind I was sure he could feel on his bare feet watered my eyes, so I closed them against it and his accusatory glare. He was provoking me, and yeah, I deserved it, but a tantrum? Is that what he thought of me, that I was just a little girl pouting and whining about everything that didn’t go my way?

After a steadying breath, I opened my eyes again and didn’t bother to brush away the tears. “Please, Kason. I don’t have anywhere left to go, and you’re the only person I trust.”

His jaw tightened as something flickered across his gaze. He stared at the doorjamb for a long moment but finally stepped aside and opened the door wider.

I zipped inside and bee-lined around the couch in the living room straight to the fire. All of my ice walls in the house had melted, either because of my leaving or in spite of it. The heat from the fireplace burned feeling back into my exposed skin, and the muscles in my arms screamed in agony when I tried to unfurl my tight clutch around Nasty and my wine.
