Aria

He was still holding onto her as he looked at me. Concern was all over his face.

“Aria?”

I nodded, assuring him that I was okay. If I used words, they might have betrayed my emotions. Although I had stood up to her, I was shaking inside. He turned to Marisol with a cold stare. His voice pummeled her look of defiance.

“I don’t know what poison you’re spilling, but it stops. Now! Crawl back into your hole!” She stumbled as he released her.

He gripped my hand, looking into my eyes to assure himself that I was okay. One second later, he was leading me out of the theatre. The sound of Marisol’s voice filled the empty space.

“I didn’t know you wanted to keep us a secret. Don’t be mad. I’ll make it up to you.”

We could still hear her raised voice as the door closed behind us. His expression had escalated from anger to rage. Even though I knew that I wasn’t the cause, it was a look that I didn’t want to see again.

He pulled me into the waiting limo. I left him alone with his thoughts for several minutes as I looked out the window. I didn’t say anything until I realized that we were leaving the city.

“Where are we going?”

“Home.”

“Home? Why aren’t we going back to the apartment?”

“Because I don’t want to. We’re going home.” His anger collided with my confusion. Now I was angry. He was the one that had convinced me to come on this trip. Telling me how great it would be if I were with him. Promising to show me the city. Now all that had changed because of her? My nerves were pushed to the edge.

“No, Declan! I don’t know what the hell that was back there, but I’m not going to suffer for it. You’re the one who painted the pretty picture of this trip and now you’re letting another woman ruin it. And you’re acting like you’re mad at me. Who is she? Some crazy, bitchy, ex-girlfriend?” I was fuming.

“You don’t know what the hell you’re talking about. She’s never been my girlfriend. That’s just something the press made up. Don’t be stupid.”

What the hell? Now I’m stupid?

“Screw you! You’re not talking to me like this. I don’t know what buttons she pushed, but this is not my issue. Take your misdirected anger and shove it up your ass! Better yet, shove it up hers!”

I moved away from him.

“Oh no, you don’t!” He took my hand and tried to pull me close, but I was so filled with anger that I shoved him back. I only looked at him long enough to see the mixture of anger and passion in his eyes.

“Get off of me! You’re being an ass!” I wasn’t playing this game.

“No.” He succeeded in getting close by pulling me at my waist. He took my chin in his hand and made me look into his eyes. “I’m not letting Marisol and her mind games get between us! This is exactly what she wants!”

He held the back of my head and crushed his lips to mine.
