As we laughed, the sound of raised voices drifted through the door, and Liam’s brow dipped. After getting dressed, we hurried from the bathroom.
Kane and Sawyer stood barely an inch apart, yelling at one another. They were at each other's throats and I didn’t need a crystal ball to work out why.

CALLIE
“We had a deal!” Kane roars, and I had never heard his voice reach that level. It was the same with Sawyer, I had never heard him yell and now they were both seconds away from a fight in the middle of the hallway.
“A deal you screwed me over on,” Sawyer snarled. “I never thought there would be a day when my father was right, but here we are. I should have known better than to trust a Lewis. All you care about is money.”
“Are you shitting me? Your company is dog water, and you just couldn’t wait to milk me dry; you had to go and sell the only thing you had left. I hope the money was fucking worth it! I knew your father’s cutthroat business ways were too good for you to pass up!” Kane’s shoulders were heaving. “You only care about the money, just like dear old dad! How much did PRISM pay you, huh?”
Sawyer’s fist collided with Kane’s face so hard that Kane stumbled backward with a cry. One shoe caught on the rough carpet and he stumbled. He would have hit the floor had Liam not darted forward to catch him.
“Sawyer, please?—.”
“Don’t,” Sawyer snapped, shaking the hand he used to punch Kane. “Don’t you dare.”
Liam had enough sense to start dragging Kane away, wrestling with him to get him into the elevator and away from the fight. They were tearing themselves apart, all looking for a traitor and none of them were looking in the right place. None of them were looking at me.
A wave of cramps stabbed through my abdomen, and I swallowed hard around the growing lump in my throat. This was going to end terribly, I could already tell.
I had to come clean before anyone else took the heat for my actions.
“Sawyer?” I approached him slowly, the truth balancing on the tip of my tongue.
His attention snapped to me, and his eyes were so filled with anger that they took my breath away. Would that anger cause him to lash out at me when I told him the truth?
“What the fuck are you doing here?” Sawyer snapped. “Didn’t I tell you to take a couple of days?”
“You did,” I nodded shakily. “But I came back because… well, with everything that’s happening, I couldn’t just let you all tear yourself apart like this.”
Sawyer rolled his eyes sharply and stalked back into his office. I followed, closing the door behind us to give us some privacy.
“Is there a chance you could have it wrong?” I asked, turning to face him.
Sawyer’s mouth collided with mine in an instant. His teeth dragged against my lower lip, biting hard enough that pain flashed through my lip. When his tongue followed, soothing the bite, all thoughts of pain faded from my mind. Until he wound his hand into my hair and gripped the strands with his fist. Hot pain flashed through my scalp, and I gasped, which gave his tongue easy access to my mouth. He kisses me hard and deep, using the grip on my hair to pull me close against his body.
The heat radiating off him was intoxicating and all thought of coming clean faded from my mind. I’d tasted Kane. I’d had Liam. Now, it was Sawyer’s turn.
A last hurrah.
I told myself I would tell him the truth later, but that thought melted within the heat building inside me. A fire raged in my chest while my heart fluttered. Warmth swept south and beaded almost painfully between my thighs. My core throbbed, and a powerful pull of want crashed through me.
Sawyer’s backside bumped against the table. Only then did he break the kiss with another sharp bite of my lower lip. Pain flared, so I curled my lips into my mouth to soothe the bite with my own tongue. Sawyer’s eyes were so dark that I was losing myself in them, like drowning in a bottomless lake with only moonlight to guide me.
He placed one heavy hand on my shoulder and I immediately sank to his knees. Saliva burst across my tongue, forcing me to swallow audibly, and a soft grunt escaped Sawyer.
“I told you to go home and you didn’t listen. Seems no one can take a fucking order, can they?”
“I can,” I gasped, placing my hands on his strong thighs. His muscle flexed underneath my palm and when he unzipped his pants, his hard cock was free within seconds. “I just couldn’t leave you like this.”
“Shut up,” he snapped. “I don’t want excuses. Open your fucking mouth.”
Never had I been spoken to like this before. Never had Sawyer been so heated or forceful and it was turning me on so hard that I ached to touch myself. The pressure building in my core was mind-numbing and pressing my thighs together wasn’t enough to satisfy the throb. I wanted to be touched. I wanted to be fucked.
I wanted him to use me to work out his feelings one last time and then I would tell him the truth.
