"Look, I'll let you talk how you want to me, but leave Kali out of this." Levi interrupts and only sends me into a deeper rage about this entire situation.

"Oh, now you act like you respect her. How many years have I heard how much you'd like to fuck that ass of hers? About her goddamn tits? This is a girl that was once a sister to me, you fucking dick."

"What does it matter? You threw me out last night. You. Threw. Me. Out. Before you fucked your own whores. I'm leaving. I'm not going to put up with this shit from you, Noah. I can fuck who I want. I can be who I want. You want nothing to do with me, remember?" She's stomping out of the kitchen when Levi steps closer to me.

"Look, I can tell you fucking love her. I shouldn't have taken her to bed, but I won't apologize for it. Because it's making you see red right now. Maybe now you'll fucking quit worrying what everyone thinks and grab that one thing you're missing in life." Kali is fumbling with her things as she walks back in. Her clothes are twisted as she tries to straighten them. Levi stops her and brushes the loose piece of hair out of her face and I have to look away for a brief second before I find myself watching again.

"I had a great time last night. Let me know when you want to do it again." His words are deep, with that smooth way he talks to women he's trying to reel in for a fuck. She leans into his hug and kisses his lips with a quick peck. What in the fuck am I watching?

I watch them both leave out the door and I torture myself even further by moving to the window and following them down the driveway. I finally see her going to that piece of shit Jeep that's parked in my spot. I should've fuckin known that was hers.

She gets in and starts up the engine. I can see him lean in for another kiss, so I turn to walk away. Walk the fuck away before I kill this mother fucker. He has no fucking right to her lips. To her body. To touch her where I want to be touching. I swear I'll gut him if he even thinks this will ever happen again.

I hear the door slam just as I enter the living room. He's in the kitchen running water before I meet him again.

"Levi, get the fuck out of my house."

"Noah, cool your shit. I have to find a place first."

"That's just it, you've been told so many fucking times and you're not even looking."

"I'll look today."

"You're fucking right you will. I want you out by tonight."

"I can't find a place in one day. I need at least a week."

"You have three fucking days."

"I could always go stay at Kali's for a few days."

His words make me irate. I can't stop myself from the urge to dive across the gap between us and grab him by the neck. My fingers are squeezing his neck when he punches me in the side and now it's fucking on. I'm filled with so much rage that I can't see clearly. It's as if it's all a blur and I'm just acting on chaos and insanity. We both keep landing hits that are meant to hurt badly.

I finally get some leverage and get him in a choke hold. My arms have him locked so fucking tight and his fingers scrape my forearm when he tries to get me to release. I squeeze tighter. What the fuck has happened to me in the last twelve hours?

He elbows me in the ribs and I finally let go.

"What the fuck?" He's gasping and trying to catch his breath and I watch him with barely any regard.

"I'm fucking done, Levi. I warned you. Don't you ever touch her again."

"Aw but see, Noah. You have no claim on her." He's bent holding his knees as he looks up at me, speaking through big breaths. "That's on you."

"The fuck I don't. Levi, I swear to you... I will cut you from your ass to your throat if you so much as touch her." I slam him into the wall, forcing him to stand and face me. We look eye to eye for a few seconds before he gives me a slight nod of acceptance.

I push off of him and begin to walk to my room. His words hit me as I turn the corner.

"Noah, when are you going to fucking do something about her? I've watched you live unhappily for years." I keep walking. He has no idea what he's talking about.

Chapter Four

Kali

I should've known not to go over there last night. I miss him. He was my person. He was the one I went to when my life got complicated and he always knew what to say. It's been years since I've seen him and I just wanted to make sure he was all right. I mean I've heard he's very successful, and by the looks of his house, he's doing well for himself, but I needed to see it for myself. Maybe I had some slight hope he would be happy to see me. Hell, maybe even missing me too.

The revenge sex was probably uncalled for, but I didn't want to go home alone after the shit I saw him do last night. He obviously has no respect for me and doesn't want me in his life. Levi just happened to be saying goodbye to the last guest from the party last night when I walked out of Noah's room. His arms felt nice. He made me feel like I was the sexiest woman alive and honestly for a moment, I believed him. He rocked my world with those position changes all night long. I feel like I've been fucked thoroughly. It's been a while since that's happened and it was long overdue, yet I feel like shit for doing it.

What's Noah's deal? He was so disgusted by me being there this morning that he got pissed at Levi for even touching me.
