CHAPTER 18

LEV

“What the hell has gotten into you?” Ridge snaps. “Your mood swings are making us all fucking crazy lately.”

I chew on my bottom lip, trying to collect any bit of composure I’ve got, which isn’t much. “Riley left class quickly and I told Maddox I’d find her and bring her to lunch. He agreed and left, so I searched the nearby halls. I found her in the center of a group of guys, one of which was strangling her wrist. I told her to get out of there, then I took care of him.”

“Took care of him, how?”

“Knocked the fucker upside the head and threatened ’em all. Doesn’t matter,” I snap. “They’re not gonna fuck with her again, but I wanted to know what else they did to her.”

“Fuck,” Ridge sighs, “I shoulda been there.”

“I told you I handled it.”

“I appreciate that, brother.” He claps a hand to my shoulder. “As hard as I try, I can’t keep my eyes on her twenty-four seven.”

“Don’t thank me. I didn’t do it for you,” I say sternly. I don’t even know why I did it, all I know is I needed to see someone bleed for causing that look in her eyes. Only I get to be the reason for that look.

Ridge scoffs, but it’s the truth. I’ve got a really hard time not speaking my mind, and an even harder time letting people think I’m doing them favors. This wasn’t a favor for Ridge or Maddox. In fact, it wasn’t even a favor for Riley. Everything I do is for myself. Each day I find myself slowly changing, more and more, touching the emotional side of myself that once existed. But it’s always so short-lived.

My hope is that one day, I can fully embrace it again. That’s why I did it. Because Riley is my key to sanity, and no one touches what’s mine—except Ridge and Maddox, but even that irks me to the core. I don’t like to share, but if I have to, they're the only ones I’d ever consider sharing with.

Maddox pipes in and says he has to get to his next class, and Ridge says he’s cutting out for the rest of the day to make sure there’s no evidence of Cade left behind after the fire sizzled out.

I pull out my phone and send Riley a text, knowing she’ll respond because she has to.

Me: There’s an old cabin down Ruddiman Drive. Sits back between two tall evergreens. Big red door. You can’t miss it. Meet me there in twenty minutes.
