I grab the bridge of my nose and take a deep breath, before I look at her again, "Get in the fucking car, we’re going home."

"Make me."

"Okay." My hand latches around her throat as I pin her to her car, and she smiles up at me, raising her chin more.

"I asked you for the truth, and you wouldn’t tell me." I growl.

"You want the truth; Here’s the truth." She hisses, taking a deep breath, "Corey made me fall in love with him, then he took my virginity and before he even pulled his dick out, he looked me in the eye and told me about his bet and laughed in my face."

Now I think I’m the one who is going to throw up. I let go of her and take a step back.

"Yeah, that’s what I thought." She snaps.

"Why didn’t you tell me."

"Because I threatened him, and he left."

"What did you threaten him with?"

"I told him he had to quit the team, or I was going to tell Dakota, which meant you and Sully would also find out."

"That’s why he left?"

"Yes. Happy now."

"Yes and no" I cup her face in my hand and her eyes fall closed. Knowing this now, Corey is definitely having that visit I had already planned.

"Let’s go home."

"Why did you do this to me Jax. I trusted you."

"Because I knew, no matter how much someone pulls at you, you will not break; You would not have told me all this if I didn’t bring you home and see for myself how you acted around him."

She tilts her head to the side, "Yeah, you’re right. I wouldn’t have. You don’t need to know everything." She rolls her eyes with her curled lip, before she gets into the car, using her car to keep her balance and I shake my head.

It hurts I did this to her, but now I know the truth, and there are no secrets, but I broke her trust in the process.

Maybe she will move on from this shit and let someone love her.

My knees are pulled to my chest in the passenger seat of my car, the road in front of me extremely blurry. Having way more than I should’ve drank, way past my max, I feel terrible and can barely keep my eyes open. But the pain that I know is going to consume me in the morning is numb, not feeling a damn thing after being smacked in the face seeing Corey.

When I left the rink, I went straight to the club and started my drinking bender, knowing my anger and drinking is a terrible combination, I did it anyways.

I’m angry with Jax for setting me up like this. But he is right. I wouldn’t have told him, but so am I, he doesn’t need to know everything.

It’s a secret I locked away, knowing that one day it may come out, but as long as Corey stayed away, it wouldn’t have.

Jax pulls into the driveway, and I cringe, not wanting to be here, and most definitely not wanting to be around my mother.

"I don’t feel like dealing with my mother."

"Good, neither do I." Jax shuts my car off before he gets out and I open the passenger door and start to get out; Well… my legs feel like fluff.

Jax hooks an arm around my back before scooping under my thighs, lifting me from the ground and into his arms.

"I forgot how mean you can be when you’re drunk." He jokes.
