Suddenly the room is a lot colder.

“I can’t argue with that,” he says, and slowly gets to his feet. “In fact, I think it’s downright impolite for us to keep anything from you anymore, right guys?”

There’s a muted, “Right” from the others.

Impolite?

I sense danger in the air, and it has nothing to do with the way Zachary’s stalking over to me like he has all day to pounce.

Something’s happened.

Something’s changed.

But what?

“So go on then.” My hug intensifies, until I start losing feeling in my fingertips. “Tell me.”

Zachary tuts me. “First, I feel we owe you an apology, Miss Malone.”

I don’t like the way he says my name.

I don’t like it one bit.

“For what?” When I frown at him, a faint smile touches his mouth.

“For treating you so poorly. For withholding information. Withholding…ouraffection.”

My eyes dart to Apollo, but he looks away. When I turn to Reuben, his face hardens.

What the hell is going on?

Maybe Iamtoo late—a bottle of whiskey and several joints too late. The malevolence seeping out of these men feels like it’s all directed at me.

“So I think it’s time we righted some of those wrongs, don’t you?”

I shake my head. “Stop with the games. Just tell me what you found and then I’ll leave.”

Zachary snatches my wrist, moving so fast that I don’t have time to step back. “No, see, Miss Malone…weinsist.”

Chapter Thirty-Nine

Zach

Trinity’s pulse flutters like a hummingbird’s heart under my thumb. She’s not terrified, but definitely unnerved. I guess it’s a good thing I went ahead and smoked as much as Apollo said I should. The last thing I want is to accidentally break this pretty little thing.

Not when there’s still so much pain to wring out of her.

And pleasure, of course, but that has always been secondary.

“Cass,” I call out. “Get ready.”

Trinity’s amber eyes open a touch wider. She tries to peer around me, but I move to the side and block her view. “Let’s not spoil the surprise.”

From behind me comes the sound of someone’s belt being removed. The metallic clink of the buckle sends a rush of blood to my cock. She has no idea what’s coming…but I can see she’s already convinced herself she knows exactly what will happen next. Meanwhile, I’m getting a semi just from the thought of what we have in store for her.
