“He’s at Storm’s place?” Fox frowned, glancing at Storm. “Did you know that?”

“No, but I’m not surprised,” Storm grumbled, his gaze sliding to me. “Don’t trash my fucking house. Call me if you need us.”

I was glad they were leaving me alone to handle it.

I said goodbye before making the walk across Stardust to Storm’s house, finding the door unlocked when I arrived. The sun had almost completely dried my hair, and I ran my fingers through it as I walked through the kitchen.

“Frost?”

“Living room.” He sounded so unsure, my heart hurting for him. I was relieved to know I wasn’t the monster he thought I was, but how could he just stop hating me?

He’d spent years thinking I’d betrayed him.

“Hey,” I said softly as I walked into the room, finding him sitting at the table, deep in thought. “You okay?”

“Does it fucking look like it?” he bit out, and I winced at how angry he was. The guys were right, he could snap over this.

I sat in a chair opposite him, trying to give him a warm smile.

“What do you want to talk about? Your memories?”

“I don’t even know,” he admitted, some of the anger vanishing as he stared at me. “I’m surprised you even showed up.”

“We’re a team.”

“I’ve tried to hurt you so many times, even tried to kill you, and—”

“Because of lies, snowflake. We’re fixing that now, remember?”

“Don’t fucking call me that.” He didn’t sound mad, just frustrated. “You used to call me that as kids sometimes when you were mad at me.”

I chuckled, tilting my head to watch him.

“Why was I mad at you?”

“Because I kept getting hurt trying to keep you safe. It used to drive you wild.” His voice faded as he dug through his memories again, speaking again after a few beats of silence. “The assholes running the facility found out about us. How we’d formed some kind of relationship. They kept forcing us to hurt each other out of spite, and I remember multiple times where we’d be forced to fuck in front of them.” The smile fell from my face as an image flashed through my mind, fuzzy memories rising to the surface as he talked. “Every time we fought them on it, they’d beat us bloody. Other times, we’d have to use our powers on each other. Those times when we’d be in bed together were both my good memories and my bad. Good because I loved you and you were the one person to take all the pain away, even if it was just for a little while. It was also bad though, tarnished thanks to those assholes for taking our solace and turning it into entertainment for themselves. Now that my memories have been unlocked, more keep coming back to me. You begged me to be your first just in case they took that choice away from you.” His broken gaze didn’t waver from mine. “You were terrified of them raping you, you’d heard them saying how nice your body was growing.
