CHAPTER NINE
Pandora sat at one of the tables in On The Rocks with her heart hammering in her chest. She shouldnât have lied to Blaze about her tears. But what else could she have done? She needed to release him. He didnât belong to her and heâd made that clear.
Besides, he had given her strength and courage.
But not by having sex with her. He did that just by being by her side.
The door to the bar swung open and in strolled Sully with his two sidekicks. They were almost always together.
She lifted her glass and took a small sip of her tequila. Sheâd promised Blaze sheâd keep her drinking to a minimum, but damn, she needed a little.
Blaze rested his hand on her leg and scooted his chair closer. He pressed his lips against her cheek. âIâve got you. Itâs going to be okay.â
âI want to fucking string him by his balls,â she whispered.
âThereâs a long line of people right behind you who want to do that too.â Blaze chuckled.
âHe didnât rape them,â she whispered.
Blaze stiffened.
Before she could defuse the rage seeping from Blazeâs pores, Sully strutted across the room like he didnât have a care in the fucking world.
The asshole even smiled as he made eye contact.
Blaze squeezed her leg. Tight. Hard.
She wasnât sure if that was to keep her from bolting or his reaction to the situation.
âI donât want any problems.â Sully raised his hands. âIâm just here to grab some dinner with my friends.â
âThen fuck off and leave us alone,â Blaze said with a deep growl. âBetter yet, why donât you find somewhere else to eat.â
âIâm not going to do that.â Sully cocked his head. âPandora, youâre looking good.â
âDonât speak to my girlfriend.â Blaze pressed both hands on the table and leaned closer. âDonât even look at her or we will have a problem.â
âSeriously, Pandora.â Sully shook his head. âYouâve got to stop filling peopleâs heads with lies about me. Itâs called slander and Iâm getting tired of it. I spent seven long years in prison for a crime I didnât commit, thanks to you.â
âA jury thought otherwise,â Pandora said with a voice more powerful than she ever imagined sheâd have when faced by her attacker.
She owed that to Blaze.
âAll because you fed them a bunch of bullshit. Not to mention you turned Andrea against me.â Sully shook his head. âIâm real sorry about what happened to you, but it wasnât me. You should be focused on finding outâ ââ
âI wouldnât go there if I were you.â Blaze rose, inching closer to Sully.
A collective hush came over the bar.
Rocky stepped from behind the counter. Ethan appeared from the kitchen. Talon was one step behind Ethan.
Pandora swallowed her beating heart.
âWe all know what happened that day and like Iâve said before. You will pay. One way or another. Whether it be at the hands of the law, or by my hands, I donât give a shit. Just remember what I said about dark alleys because justice is coming for you.
