“Didn’t anyone tell you that you should never say never?Besides, that’s kind of a challenge for me.”

“A challenge?”

“Yeah, now my goal will be to make sure I get you on the bed with me.”

“Well, I hate to burst your bubble, but you shouldn’t look for that to happen.Especially since you will be back home and I’ll be here.”

“That’s semantics, besides we’re both here right now.”

“Yes, well.That’s why I’m here.Wolf doesn’t like you.”

“You’re starting to repeat yourself, Angel.”

“You’ve got on his radar.”

“I have no idea what that means.Did I mention there’s room here on the bed for you?”

“Devil, will you try and be serious for a minute?Wolf isn’t a man you should cross.”

“Angel, it sounds like you’re worried about me.I can’t decide if I should be offended or flattered.Now, about this bed…”

“Will you stop being an idiot.This is serious.You don’t know him like I do.He’s very…protectiveover me.”

“I think the word you’re looking for, Angel, is possessive.”

“Whatever.Listen, Wolf is a good guy really, but he can be…”

“Torrent, I don’t really want you to defend your boyfriend to me.”

“You need to leave.”

“You carted your sweet little ass over here to tell me that?”

“I felt the need to warn you,” she mutters.“Though now, I’m starting to wonder why.”

“Because you like me, even if you don’t want to.”

“Maybe I do.Will you take me seriously, please?”

I let out a deep breath and turn to put my feet on the ground and face her.

“You don’t need to worry about me, Torrent,” I tell her seriously, leaning my hands on my legs and watching her.

“You don’t know Wolf like I do, Logan, you don’t understand how he can be,” she says and she looks lost.I get up and walk to her.I pull out the chair that Diesel had earlier and basically force her to sit down.Then I slide down on my knees in front of her, bracing my hands on each arm of the chair.I have a lot of questions I want to ask her, but somehow when I open my mouth only one comes out.

“And that leads me to one question, Torrent.”

“What’s that?”

“Just how well do you know, Wolf, Angel?And did youknowhim when we met?”

I stare up into her eyes and wonder exactly why I need to know the answers.

I only know I do.
