“Oh, I could see the possessiveness in her eyes. I approve. I could see myself acting the same way,” I tell them.

“This one time, a club whore wouldn’t stop checking out and hitting on Brick. Carmen had enough of it and had taken a knife to the woman’s cheek. She told her that if she didn’t stop looking or talking to her man, she was going to scar her pretty little face up,” Whisky says laughing.

“Damn, I think I have a woman crush on her now,” I whisper in awe.

“Now that’s my woman. Don’t even think about it,” a deep voice says. I startle and turn to see Leon, also known as Brick, standing there with Carmen in his arms.

I smirk at Brick. “I’ll try to keep my hands to myself.”

“See that you do. I already know about you showing your tits to Ana,” he tells me.

“Hey, she wanted to see the piercings. Not that I wouldn’t hit on her if I was into women, but I think I will just stick with Zane,” I tell them with a wink.

“Who are you hitting on now?” Zeke asks me as he walks into the room with takeout for me, Whisky, and N.

“Carmen. I have a girl crush on her because she’s possessive of your dad,” I tell him while grabbing my food and digging in. I didn’t realise how starving I was until just now.

I barely pay attention to anyone as I stuff my face full of food.

It takes a few minutes, but then I notice that everyone is quiet.

I look up, and everyone is staring at me. It doesn’t help that my mouth is full of food and I have what I assume is sauce dripping down my chin from the burger in my hands.

“What?” my words are barely recognisable as I still have food in my mouth.

“I don’t know if I should be impressed or horrified,” Whisky whispers.

I chew my food quickly and narrow my eyes at him.

“Always impressed,” I tell him.

“How Zane still wants you after seeing you eat like a wild animal, I’ll never know,” Zeke teases.

I shrug my shoulders. “I like food,” I mutter.

“Clearly,” he says with a laugh.

“You have your doctor’s appointment tomorrow, right?” Zeke asks.

I nod my head. “Yeah, hopefully I get cleared. Then I can actually do shit,” I tell him.

“What about you, N?” Leon asks him.

“Another couple weeks, and then I should be in physio,” he tells us.

I spend a few more hours with them before heading back to my room.

I had gotten a package in the mail earlier. I was excited to open it. A bunch of lingerie was in the box.

Since I wasn’t able to go anywhere, I had done a lot of online shopping.

I was in the middle of trying it all on when the door to the bedroom opens and there is a sharp intake of breath before the door slams closed.

I turned around to see Zane looking at me with heat in his eyes.

“Fuck. You look fucking delicious,” he rasps.

“I was trying it on to see if it fits and if I like how it looks,” I tell him with an innocent shrug.
