“This is tasteless. Just tasteless.” I held the lurid paperback up like it was evidence in a crime. “It’s called Underwater Sex.”

Only Alonzo would send me something like this. Only Alonzo would think dumping nearly a thousand books on my doorstep—delivered in crates so heavy the movers cursed—was some grand gesture. I hadn’t even wanted to accept them. But returning that many boxes would’ve cost a small fortune. So, instead, my friends and I had spent the afternoon in my spare bedroom, trying to sort through the chaos.

At least it had turned into a group project.

Tatiana snatched the offending book from me and flipped it over. “Oh relax. It’s not about kinky mermaids, it’s about how fish procreate.” She raised one brow. “Honestly? I expected dirtier from him.”

Daphne leaned over her shoulder, reading the blurb. “Wait—hold on. Did you know male seahorses are the ones that get pregnant? Not the females?”

“Yes,” Constance and Victor said at the exact same time.

We all turned. Constance

    The elevator doors shut and by the fifth floor, the moment had sunk in, and I turned to see Alonzo smile at the ground. “Did you just go out and buy food for your doorman?”He chuckled. “No, but I’m not going to expose you to chicken satay.”“Oh.” Yeah, I could do without another allergic shock. “Thanks.”“That means you owe me dinner.”“No, this just means we’re even for the dinner you canceled on me.”“What I’m hearing is, we need to catch up on two dinners.”“I think you need hearing aids, Casanova.” I hated how easily I slipped back into conversation with him. This wasn’t supposed to be easy. For goodness’ sake. We had spent almost as much timenottalking since the White Ball as we had spent time getting to know each other. The fake versions of each other.The elevator pinged and let us out on his floor. His new place was bigger than the old one, but most of his sleek, dark wood furniture had carried over. It was also a lot more cluttered, and I clutched the strap of my bag to ref

    A zipper. The rustle of fabric. He pulled my hips back, bending me in the middle, and then he pushed into me. It was the worst pain I’d ever experienced during sex. I bit my tongue so hard, a bitter metallic taste welled up in my mouth. I couldn’t open far enough. I wasn’t wet enough. He was just fucking into me, too big and too fast. And I started doing what I always did: Moan when the dick hit deep, clench when it was pulled out. Throw in an “Oh god, yes.” every now and again and clench down harder. Within a few minutes, he groaned and spilled himself into me.The second he pulled out, I straightened, tugged my pants back into place and climbed out of the ring. “Goodbye, Alonzo ,” I yelled over my shoulder before disappearing into the shower. Never had I ever wanted to scrub a man off my body faster.I shouldn’t have fuckedher.I should not have fucked her.I. Should. Not. Have. Fucked. Her.Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck.I wanted to bang my head against the wall

    11 DAYS.That’s how long it took for my life to be irrevocably changed, only to fall back into a daily routine.Access to his personal computers made it easy to link Julius to the money taken out of Xenos ’s accounts to pay off the Yelchin family, and with that in hand, it was even easier to make it look like he’d fled the country.I’d expected to mourn him more, but despite being brothers, it had been a long time since we’d been family.Brothers firsthad been our mother’s words over and over again, until the word ‘brother’ had lost all meaning. The Julius who had held my hand while our parents threw books and vases at each other, who lay in the twin bed next to mine at Casa de Camila while our father and grandfather argued business, who spent countless nights sleeping at the dining table with me - that Julius had been long gone.Once that was settled, Bruce and I moved into an apartment halfway between her house and mine. My place had been too small, but there was n

    The days in the hospital blurred past as I drifted in and out of a deep, exhausted sleep. Victor was there a lot. Tatiana and Daphne visited. But I rarely had the energy and brain space to talk to them. I barely even had the energy to process everything that had happened the day of the car accident.I didn’t hear from Alonzo besides flowers and chocolates being Allieivered to my hospital room. I gave all of it to the nurses.Victor just said I didn’t have to worry about the Benington s anymore. Not to worry was his standard answer, no matter what question I asked.Was he really tied to organized crime?Don’t worry about it.What had happened to Julius?You shouldn’t worry about him.Was Constance okay?Letmeworry about Constance .The day I was released from the hospital, he helped me into the backseat of Constance ’s town car, only to take me back to her place. I’d figured the whole ruse was over now, considering they’d checked me into the hospital under my

    Julius raised an unimpressed brow and shook the dirt off his leather shoe. “Didn’t I tell you to go to sleep?”“Has nobody ever taught you how to treat a lady?” I countered, slowly stepping forward. I had no plan other than keeping him talking to keep the gun down.“Lady? Her?” He swiveled out of his chair and waved his gun in the general direction of Constance . “That’s rich coming from you. Weren’t you pretending to be her?”“Is that what this is about? You’re pissed because you didn’t get to meet the real Constance Montana?”“Please,” he grunted. “I’m glad you replaced her. I doubt the real Constance would have dropped her panties within three weeks of meeting my brother. She might actually be more of a lady than you are. You barely hesitated to dump your precious boyfriend, so Alonzo can finger your little cunt inherliving room. You’re going to be much easier to handle than that frigid ice princess.”What did you tell him about me?I told him fucking n
