Trent fought the urge to fling his bag across the room when he got to his apartment. But since it contained firearms—one of which was loaded—he set it down with care on his table. He grabbed a drink and then sat down in front of his computer. Ever since the attack, he’d found himself monitoring things more than he had before. But even that couldn’t calm the turmoil within him.

He wasn’t even sure what he was most upset about. The fact that Victoria had been in pain and using crutches for some time, and she hadn’t told him. Not only that, she’d hidden it as if she couldn’t trust him with that information.

It also stung that she’d willingly offered up his single status to that woman without even a hesitation. Was she not feeling any sort of connection with him the way he was with her? And then her revelation of society’s perceptions had made him mad. Is that why she’d resisted his earlier attempts at a relationship? She didn’t want to be subject to society’s perceptions of them?

He certainly didn’t give a rip what society thought about anything. And his sister could no doubt vouch for that after her most recent stay with him. She’d made sure he knew—once again—every single thing that was expected of him because of who he was. The son of a rich family. Though he’d been raised hearing lectures about it, he’d chosen not to follow his family’s idea of how society should operate. Their perception of society that elevated them above others. The guides by which he lived came from his belief in God and how the Bible laid out he should live his life.

Maturity and his own experiences had moved him past the point of looking at just the surface of people. He wasn’t ignorant, but sometimes he forgot that a good chunk of the world either didn’t care to embrace those who were different or they outright rejected them. Those were the ones who seemed to be at the forefront of Victoria’s own perceptions of the world.

Would he be able to get Victoria to set aside any fears she had about how people might look at them in order to give a relationship a shot? That was assuming she felt anything for him. Some days he felt a growing confidence that she did but then days like today left him wondering.

If some guy had come up and asked him if she had a boyfriend, he would definitely have figured out a way to make it clear to the guy that she was unavailable.

As he sat there, once again thinking about Victoria’s comments on society, he realized that his own family might have some difficulty accepting her. Not that that would ever stop him from being with her if she was willing. But would they see in her the things he did? Her strength. Her loving heart. Her sense of humor. Even the whole thing with the guns had shown him again how determined and strong she was.
