Chapter Seventeen

Hank slammed through the apartment door as if the faster he moved, the easier it would be to get away from the revelation V. had just dumped on him. When it didn’t help, he threw his lunch on the table and cared not a bit that the bag slid across the slick surface and fell off the other side. Knight’s head came up, a low growl rumbling in his chest. Hank knew the feeling.

“She’s a what?”

V. came through the door calmly. Quietly. But he wasn’t calm; he was more angry than Hank had ever seen. Hank could read the rage in his eyes, in the set of his mouth, could feel it radiating off his friend, but he couldn’t seem to care at the moment. All he could think about was Sage. All he could see was her face black-and-blue, just like Tara’s. Hurting. Bleeding. The thought of her asking for someone to do that to her had him eyeing the sink as bile rose in his throat.

Holding open the door, V. motioned to Knight. With a small whine and a glance back at Hank, the shepherd went out. V. closed the door behind him with extreme care, retrieved Hank’s bag, and set both of their lunches on the table with that same careful precision.

Only then did he respond to Hank’s barked question. “She’s a submissive.”

“And you know this how?”

“Because she was a regular at Heathers.”

He didn’t want to ask, but he had to. “Were you… Did you…?”

“Did I fuck your girlfriend?” V. asked, disgust in his voice. Hank was pretty sure it wasn’t disgust at the thought of having sex with Sage. No, his friend’s aversion was a hundred percent directed Hank’s way. “No, I was not involved with Sage. She was never my sub.”

If his friend hadn’t sounded so matter-of-fact, Hank might’ve doubted him. One look at V.’s face and he couldn’t. V. was telling the truth.

“But she—” Fuck. He couldn’t finish that sentence. He didn’t want to. Details of Sage with some other man were on his never-ever-discuss list. Details of her being dominated? He shut that down as soon as it popped into his head. Or tried to.

Striding to the window seat gave him as good an excuse as any to stop looking V.’s way.

“Hank…” V. trailed off with a curse. Hank thought about reassuring him, but most of his attention was sucked up with breathing as deep as he could. Trying to ignore the strange surge of something that wasn’t quite revulsion inside him.

His stomach rolled.

“I’m gonna be as honest with you as I can without punching you,” V. finally said. “If anyone had treated a sub the way you treated Sage downstairs, disdaining
