“HEY,” I BARKED, GOING AFTER her.

Almost to her car, she spun. Fury in her eyes, her nostrils flared. “You do not get to speak to me. Ever again!” She spun back around in the high heels I’d taken off her last night.

“Why?” I demanded. “Because I work here, or because you’re pissed off that I knew who you were? Is that so fucking important, Fallon, that you’re walking away from me?”

Anger radiating off her, she turned and her finger aimed at my chest. “I am not walking away from you because there is nothing between us. Nothing,” she bit out. “You hear me? Because I don’t associate with liars.”

“Name one thing I lied about?” One goddamn thing.

“You knew who I was. You knew I was looking for Summer.” In her mounting fury, she leaned dangerously closer to me. “You knew where Summer was the whole time.”

One move and I could have my hands and mouth on her. One move and I could silence her anger with my body. One move and I could end this bullshit between us right now. But I didn’t know if touching her would make her remember every damn second of what we had last night or if it’d make me lose her forever.

So I didn’t reach for her.

My fists at my sides, I attacked her accusations. “First of all, I didn’t lie about any of that. You didn’t ask. But if you had, I would’ve told you everything in my power to tell. Second of all, what difference would any of that have made between us?” I challenged.

She looked at me like I was fucking insane. “All the difference.”

“I’m calling bullshit.” Moving closer to her, I dropped my voice so the whole damn team at L&A didn’t hear me on the fucking security feeds. “Last night was about you and me. You know damn well it was. I checked in with you, over and over.” I’d fucking checked. “You were right there with me. Right fucking there. No one else was in that damn hotel room.” My voice dropped to a lethal quiet. “I was the one inside you. I was the one making you feel good. You didn’t give a shit where I worked last night or what I knew about your past. Last night wasn’t about a damn thing except two people who wanted to be together.” Let her fucking argue that fact. “You know it, and I know it.”

The lobby door opened, and Luna stepped out. His glare locked on me, he crossed his arms in warning.

I didn’t give one single goddamn fuck. I was neck deep in damage control with Fallon, and no way in hell was she walking away from me like this.

“And now it’s about two people who will never be together again.” Hate dripped off her fucking words, and I latched on to it.

Mad enough to spit, out of my fucking depth, I lit into her. “Keep that shit up, sweetheart. Throw that anger at me.” I closed
