Chapter Eleven
âI told you they werenât my boots.â Kayla enunciated every word because Josh didnât seem capable of understanding English. She turned the Porsche onto PCH.
âYouâre stripping the gears,â he complained. The only way sheâd been able to keep him from driving was pointing out the fact that if his ankle didnât heal quickly, his movie would be put on hold. âAnd Iâm supposed to believe Riley Bladeâs girlfriend just happens to be your size and she left her hiking boots in his car? Thatâs awfully convenient.â
Oh, she had such good fucking news for him on that front. âNot my size, buddy. They were too small. Do you want to check and see how bad the blisters on my feet are? The backs of my feet are completely trashed.â
It was clear Riley thought she had a ten-year-oldâs feet. She hadnât noticed how bad it was when the adrenaline had been pumping through her body. It was only later when she had to peel those suckers off that she realized how tight theyâd been.
She glanced down at the clock. How could it only be one thirty? It felt like theyâd been in that canyon for hours. Her phone went off. She didnât even look down at it. Her dad had called earlier and anyone else who was calling this late could leave a damn message. It was probably Tucker, who always seemed to forget that there was a time difference.
Josh sulked in the seat beside her like a big, gorgeous, made-bad-decisions man boy. After wrapping his ankle, he was moving quite well. One of the members of The Reef happened to be a doctor. They had told the doc a complete bullshit lie about Josh falling in the parking lot. The doc had looked him over and found nothing was broken and Josh only had a mild strain of the muscle.
âWhen we get back to the house, youâll pack your things,â he said, staring out at the road ahead.
Shane had dropped the two of them off at the club while Riley had stayed behind to help with the vehicles. She didnât like to think about one of them having to go back on that trail after Agnes, but she couldnât afford to have the cops show up asking why her SIG Sauer had been found in the canyon. There would be far too many questions.
âSo youâre firing me? For doing my job?â
âNo, Iâm firing you for bringing that asshole with you. Tell me something, Kay, you playing around with him? Having some fun when Iâm not here? Thatâs the only way to explain why you would hop into his car without a second thought, putting my privacy on the line. Maybe this is what the two of you planned all along.â
Such an ass. These were the times she could easily walk away from him. âYeah, thereâs no other explanation. Iâm just a whore.â
âWell, give me a better explanation,â he shot back and then shifted in his seat. âAnd I didnât use that word.
