Chapter Fourteen

Joe

Welp. That’s going to be real hard to come back from. I’m now pretty certain—make that one hundred percent certain—Miranda will never, ever, ever talk to me again. And the night started off so well! We were bonded, connected, made whole together. I’ve never had so much fun dancing with a big sparkling dinosaur in my entire life! She even admitted to liking one of my books. #breakthrough

We were a match made in romance heaven. You could have written a book about us. Everything was perfect. Perfect. And then…

You know the things nightmares are made of? They infected the masquerade ball and stuck themselves to me like fucking leeches. Bethany Snatchface Bonafont is the queen leech, too. Queen of Hearts, my ass. That evil bitch is Queen of the Goddamn Underworld.

I hunt her down in her uglyass Betty Boop costume, surrounded by all her admirers and hangers-on. She is the one destroying romance, not me. I grab her shoulder, spin her around, and shove my finger in her face. “You.”

She has the nerve to bat her eyelashes at me. “Why, hello there, Charlie. Where’s your girlfriend?”

“You are the biggest, most fossilized spaceshit I’ve ever met in my life.” I stay as smooth as silk, but underneath, I’m running so hot I could melt her face off. “Do you get off being such a cuntnugget? Do you jerk off in the middle of the night, dreaming up ways to crush sweet people?”

Her dainty little jaw of death drops, like she’s offended. “Oh my goodness, Charlie. I’m so sorry. Did I upset your girlfriend?”

“You know exactly what you did.” My voice is dangerous. “And you’re a total douchecanoe for doing it.”

“I mean, she had a right to know, didn’t she?” Bethany bats her eyelashes again. “If I were in her shoes, I’d want to know the guy I’m cozying up to totally torpedoed me in a competition.”

“You bitch,” I hiss.

“Name-calling is so unattractive.” She flashes her teeth, more menacing than a smile. “It’s such a shame, really. You two looked like you were having such a good time. But I couldn’t, in my good conscience, let it pass knowing what I know. I owed it to her. Girl-code. Surely you understand.”

“I understand you’re a snake in the grass. How are you a romance writer again?”

“Author,” she corrects. “And a damn good one. Listen, maybe if you hadn’t decided to discredit our amazing conference by fornicating in a conference room…”

“Is that what this is about?” I stare at her hard, and I notice she falters just a touch. “Because I turned you down?”

She feigns shock, but I can see right through it. “I am married, thank you very much. How dare you accuse me of such a thing?”

“Right. You didn’t seem so concerned about your husband when you tried to grab my crotch at the beginning of the conference, now did you?”

“I am so offended!” She clutches her heart, but I see her friends start to titter around her like idiots. Oh, ho.
