Chapter 16
None of the new showers were tiled yet, so Colt grabbed his clothes and headed for Brandon and Kitty’s bathroom, and the only usable shower.
He sluiced off the dirt from his fight with Jason. He should probably give the guy a break—he’d lost his crew and the woman he was in love with, and he had nowhere to go.
That had to suck.
But Jason had to fight with someone, or he’d lose it completely. So maybe Colt’s dickishness was more like a favor?
He turned off the water, leaned out of the shower and reached for his towel. Somebody put it into his hand, and he jumped.
Remy.
“Shit,” Colt said. “Can’t a man even take a shower unsupervised? I’m fucking nude, here.”
Remy leaned his hips against the vanity. “It’s okay. I’m used to the sight of your freakishly tiny dick. It doesn’t traumatize me anymore—it just proves we’re not really identical.”
Colt stepped out of the shower and started to towel himself down. Remy was staring at his crotch. “I take it back. I might be traumatized.”
Colt looked down. Oh, shit. Callie’s name was still clearly visible, inches above his dick.
“It’s not what it looks like,” he said automatically.
Remy folded his arms. “Really? Now I’m fascinated to hear what you think it actually looks like. Because I got nothin’.”
Um. “It was a joke?”
“Sure. Nothing’s more hilarious than sleeping with a woman who admits to being afraid you’ll forget her name.”
“I remember it. It’s Jennifer,” Colt said, expertly deflecting with a bad joke. He looked down at the name on his belly. “Oops. I was close, anyway.”
Remy just gazed at him steadily. “You’re full of shit.” He took a deep breath. “Is she your mate?”
Colt was stunned. He wrapped the towel slowly around his waist. How did they get from ‘her name’s Jennifer ha ha’ to ‘is she your mate?’ Wasn’t there a middle ground somewhere?
“Callie? No way.” Remy didn’t say anything. “Shit.” Colt felt himself start to panic. “Do you think she is? No, she can’t be.”
“Why not? You’re always checking up on her. When she’s around, you can’t stop watching her. You fight Jason over her all the fucking time. And last night you slept with her, and you spent the whole night at her place, which you almost never do. And now you seem…” Remy trailed off. “Different,” he said finally.
This was the thing Colt didn’t want to think about. Because he’d always known Callie wasn’t like other women. Hadn’t he said she was relationship material? And last night… her voice had stood out in the middle of the whole bar crowd, telling him to duck away from the knife.
She’d been the one he was worried about, the one he’d almost Changed to protect.
The one whose kiss had pulled him back from the edge.
The one who’d made him feel like the sun came up inside him.
Fuck.
“But she can’t be my mate,” he said finally. Because even though all those things were true, there was one thing that proved it.
“Why not?” Remy asked.
