"You've got to be freaking kidding me," I muttered, stabbing my gate opener for about the fiftieth time and getting no luck. Furious, I redialed Mik's number again. I'd gotten his voicemail the last ten or fifteen times I'd called, but was too pissed off to leave a message.

"Mik!" I snapped when he actually answered this time. "You changed my foxing gates? I can't get into my own damn house! You are in so much trouble—"

My rant cut short as he hung up on me.

He hung up on me!

Boiling with fury, I stabbed redial again, and put the phone to my ear.

"Mikhail fucking Ravena, you—" He hung up again, but this time my front gates opened so I threw my phone onto the passenger seat and accelerated up the driveway to my front door.

After screeching to a halt, I slammed my darling Lola into park then stomped up my front steps without bothering to even close my car door. I was way too pissed off.

How dare he? He changed my locks and then didn't give me access?!

"Mik!" I bellowed, stomping into my foyer and hearing my voice echo through the enormous house. "Mikhail, where the hell are you?"

"Thea, please, there’s no reason to yell," he said in a quiet, but no less forceful tone as he stepped out of my sitting room holding a damn brandy snifter. His short, dark hair was styled to perfection, a heavy navy coat hanging off his broad shoulders as he took a sip of his drink. Once again, I had that strange feeling that he looked sad, but I just couldn’t reconcile that with his personality.

"Fuck you," I hissed, my anger boiling over. "You come into my house uninvited, you change my freaking locks?! You've way overstepped the bounds of being my boss, Mik. Not to mention this bond you've started forming with me. When were you planning on telling me about that, huh?"

For the first time in all the years since I'd met Mikhail Ravena, he looked uncertain. "Who the fuck—" He cut off and his face darkened like a thunderstorm. "Nix. When the fuck did you speak to Nix?"

The fury in his tone made me falter, and I sucked in a breath, searching for an excuse. While initially I had planned on telling Mik about my lunch with Nix, or at least about the offer Nix had made, I hadn't really thought any further than that. I sure as shit didn't consider the fact that Mik might be angry enough to hurt me.

"Uh ..." My eyes darted around my foyer, looking for a distraction. "Why don't you tell me what gave you the right to change the locks on my house and then make yourself right at home after?"

Mik’s intense blue gaze narrowed on me, but I wasn't stupid enough to glare back. Did I want him reading my thoughts? Hell freaking no!

"Your house wasn't secure. Any psychopath could have waltzed in here and killed you while you slept." His jaw tightened, like he was ready to defend his actions despite knowing he was in the wrong.
