ELLIE

Zane wasn't the best boyfriend.

I mean sure, he was perfect for a one night stand and… maybe a couple more stupid drunk nights after that, but as a boyfriend…

…he kinda sucked.

It'd been two months since I kicked Max and Bianca out of my apartment and invited Zane to come stay with me instead.

It was a decision I made out of haste, intentionally trying to get under Max's skin.

But I can't remember the last time Max did so little as glance in my direction with anything but an unreadable

  • Roommates With My Best Friend's Boyfriend    The Truth

    TIFFANY (Fifteen Minutes Ago)For a second, I couldn’t move.Mason’s mouth had already left my cheek, but the fact of it was still there, warm and wrong and loud enough to fill the whole office. His hand stayed at my waist. Light. Claiming. Like he had every right.Theo saw all of it.Of course he did.“What’s up, Campbell?” Mason said, easy as breathing.I turned on him so fast my shoulder brushed his chest. The words had already climbed up the back of my throat and were about to slide down my tongue… when his fingers tightened at my waist, just enough to stop any response. A warning dressed up as affection. His eyes didn’t even leave Theo while he did it.“Not now.”That was the message.And for some stupid reason, I listened.Maybe because Theo’s men were still by the door. Maybe because the parcel deal was supposed to stay clean. Maybe because the last time this man and I made a scene in public, I walked out with a slapped palm and no way back. Whatever the reason, I stayed quie

  • Roommates With My Best Friend's Boyfriend    Q & A

    THEOFor a second, all I saw was his mouth on her cheek.Not the parcel in my hand. Not the men by the door. Not the polite little office with its slow ceiling fan and paper smell.Just Mason’s hand at her waist, the word *babe*, and Tiffany standing still enough to make the whole thing look unfinished.“What’s up, Campbell?”I could have hit him.It would have been easy. Short distance. No real resistance from a man who walked in smiling like the room already belonged to him. My people were right there. The street outside was quiet enough.I signed the slip instead.The pen felt too thin in my fingers. I pressed harder than necessary, left a confirmation mark that looked clean enough to pass for composure, and slid the paper back across the counter.“We’re done,” I said.Tiffany’s eyes flicked to me. Something moved in them… not guilt exactly. Not triumph either. More like she’d been placed inside a scene before she could decide whether she wanted a role in it.Mason kept his han

  • Roommates With My Best Friend's Boyfriend    Tell Me He Means Nothing

    TIFFANYI hated how I was starting to get used to this place.To the fixed chairs and dusty desktop that was probably older than I was.To the familiar customers that always had that look of pity whenever we traded glances.Even the the annoying smell of cardboard and old newspapers that filled the room with a heavier sense of staleness.I hated every bit of it. I sat behind the desk and turned a pen between my fingers, watching the second hand crawl across the wall clock.Summer had made everything slower.No classes. No club meetings. No convenient excuses to stay away from home long enough to outrun my own head. After Dakota, after the taking, after all those days of being moved around like a problem other people were deciding what to do with, silence had become dangerous. If I stayed still too long, the memories filled the space for me.So I came here.Even when the work was thin. Even when my father used the place more as a leash than a business. Even when most of my job was an

    BRIAN“I was gonna tell you I found your guy,” Mika said. “But I don’t think you’re gonna be particularly fond of him when I tell you who he is.”I stopped just past her and turned.She was still standing in the balcony doorway, tablet against her chest, expression already braced for the mood I was about to be in.“Name,” I said.Mika didn’t drag it out. One of the few things I appreciated about her.“Matt Majors.”For a second, the night air felt tighter than it should have.Not because the name was unfamiliar.Because it wasn’t.I walked back into the workspace without answering her. Mika followed, quiet for once, and set the tablet on the desk like she was placing a loaded thing between us.The screen showed a thin file. Too thin. A few stills. A partial work history. Two known aliases that led nowhere useful. No current address. No clean financial trail. No family ties worth a damn.And still, the face was enough.Older than the last time I’d seen it, but not softer. Same controll

    ADRIAN“No. Absolutely not. Over my dead body.”***“Julia’s said very good things about you, and I’m pleased to say we’d love to have you work here. Would you like to begin tomorrow, or right now?”I gritted my teeth, knowing fully well that if the next words that slipped down my tongue were the ones I actually meant, this whole carefully built cover would collapse on the spot.“He actually mentioned how eager he was to begin,” Julia answered for me… for what was probably the hundredth time tonight alone. “So I’m sure he’d love to continue the night shift with me. Right, Adrian?”She turned to glance at me.If only eyes could kill.If they could, she’d have died a little over seven times already.“Of course,” I lied.The manager smiled like that settled everything, handed me a black apron, and pointed toward the floor like I should already know where I belonged.A restaurant. Night shift. Waiting tables.Of all the places I could’ve ended up after Dakota, this somehow felt both t

    BRIAN“You know, if you're gonna keep staring at me the whole time, you might as well just come take the laptop away. I can't work like this.”“You had me believe you were trained for these kind of situations” I groaned. “You hacked into the Lang database like it was nothing, yet you can't find one measly man?”Mika turned back on her ergonomic chair and stared at me with an expression clear with contempt.“He didn't sound so ‘measly’ when you described him. Speaking of which, you BARELY described him” she emphasized. “All I know is that you saw him at the Lang Meeting. Meaning he could be one in hundreds of people.”A wave of annoyance spread between us, and the moment she noticed, she turned back to the laptop. “Just give me more time. I'll find your mystery man.”Yeah. Sure she would.It's not like it'd been weeks or anything. The longer it took, the more frustrating it became. With Theo unresponsive and the hunt for me all but over, I already had a lot on my plate. Yet, the o
