I spend a lot of time down in this library, mainly when I’m trying to stay away from the guys and anyone else in the house. That’s even more true now that Jade is a constant here.

I don’t really care for the books, occasionally, I’ll pick one up, but mostly this room is forgotten, which means I can bring my laptop down here and get work done.

Froggie has been using my computer skills since Kratos learned about them. I also handle most of our bookkeeping and drop-offs for our section of the city and clubs we manage. I’m happy to help when it cements our worth to the boss. Well, usually, I am. Helping set Jade up was not my favorite, but I did it anyways.

Right now, I'm elbows deep in looking into her actual past, not the one I had to create for her to go to an elite school that she doesn’t deserve to be at. No, that past I know everything about because I made it. It’s what I don’t know that’s driving me crazy.

I reach for my coffee and go as far as to take a sip before realizing it’s empty.

Shit.

I don’t feel like going upstairs right now, not with the chance of running into Jade being a possibility. I look down at the small clock on my screen just to make sure, but yeah, it’s only just after eight, which means she could be anywhere in the house right now.

I put my cup down just a little more forcibly than necessary, not that it matters because nobody’s around to see, but it still bugs me just how far beneath my skin this girl has managed to get in such a short time.

I don’t care what Rick or Zander says. I know she’s hiding something, and while Kratos being in her corner should have helped me to feel relieved, all it did was push me farther. We’ve known Kratos for years, and he’s never given anyone the time of day, but somehow after two meetings with Jade, he’s acting like a regular guy.

It wouldn’t be so odd for anyone else, except maybe Rick, who I also might add is less broody around her than usual, but that’s not as crazy as Kratos for me. And while Zander isn’t at all shocking in his behavior, it’s still annoying the ever-loving hell out of me.

As if my thoughts have called them to me, I hear none other than Zander and Jade enter the library. I have to force down a groan of frustration which is easier said than done.

I rub a hand down my face, my eyes falling closed as I do, making me realize, not for the first time, that I’m exhausted. I didn’t sleep last night as I dug into her background. I had hoped to get some sleep today while she would have been busy with Zander, but Kratos killed that plan when he called Rick early this morning for us to bring Jade to the club again.
