Is she with another man?Maybe Qina said something to her to scare her away.

My gaze drifted to Qina, who sat at the bar, talking to a demon who had his back turned toward me, but she gave me her sultriest gaze, which had never done anything for me. My claws sank into my palms until they ripped apart my human skin.

“You good?” Bazzon asked.

“Fine,” I growled, narrowing my glare.

Varoth sipped his drink. “You still thinking about that girl?”

“No.”

Bazzon tipped his glass back. “Didn’t see her for a few hours. Now, his dick’s sad.”

“Come on, dude.” Varoth howled in laughter and nudged my shoulder. “Humans always crawl back to guys like us. Give her a day or so, and she’ll be back, begging for your cock. Until then, why don’t you find yourself a pretty lady? Qina keeps looking over here.”

I cut my glare to him. “Did you send her?”

He scrunched his brows. “Did I send her where?”

“To my house this morning,” I said. “I never told her where I live, but she showed up at my place. And if Iza had seen her, I would have had a mess to clean up.” And I wasn’t talking about Iza’s feelings being hurt.

If Iza had seen Qina at my house and I saw her get teary-eyed, I would’ve killed Qina right then and there. I glared overat her, now chatting up Sawyer Laufer, who looked just as uninterested in her as I felt, thinking about her.

“Why would I send Qina to your place?” Varoth asked.

“Because you like Iza.”

“I don’t like Iza.” He chuckled. “I don’t fall for humans the way you do.”

Bazzon squeezed my shoulder. “What happened to the player you used to be?”

“Get off me,” I snarled, pissed that Iza wasnowheretonight.

“You’re acting like Sawyer did ten years ago,” Varoth said, sipping his drink. “All over that human girl, only for her to break his heart. It’s a pity that asshole never recovered from that. Now, he’s forced to chat up Qina just to get some pussy.”

“You don’t want to end up like him,” Bazzon said.

“Sad life, not getting his dick sucked every night,” Varoth commented.

I balled my hands into fists underneath the table and shoved my chair back. After downing the rest of my second Passion Delight of the night, I stormed over to Qina because I was certain that she had said something to Iza.

That,andI wanted to know who’d sent her.

Bazzon and Varoth were being too dickish right now.

“Hey, Acaros,” Sawyer said.

“What did you do?” I growled at Qina.

Qina clicked her tongue, smiling at me. “Whatever do you mean?”

From a couple of chairs down, Dani and Eros both looked over at us. I cursed underneath my breath because I had wanted to avoid ErosandDani tonight. A bouncer whispered something in Eros’s ear, and then Eros slipped off his seat and headed over.

I seethed but kept myself together because I didnotwant to be kicked out of here, like they had promised to do last nightwhen that asshole was hitting on my girl right in fucking front of me. So, I narrowed my gaze at Qina, warning her to speak.

“I didn’t do anything.” She crossed her arms. “Maybe Iza just doesn’t like you.”

My nostrils flared. “How do you know her name?”
