Although Tanner constantly fights with her, he’s made it very clear that he finds her hot. While I’m not one to speak on such things, choosing instead to remain quiet, I’m certain my interest in her has also been quite obvious to the guys.
The only person who hasn’t shown too much interest in her is Rueben. Although, I suppose it makes sense, considering he’s the type to be silent and merely stare. He wouldn’t try to make her uncomfortable by making his feelings known.
I look at the closed door once again.Has to be Rueben.
He’s been quite attentive to her needs, making sure that she’s all right and fixing her breakfast before he heads to work. He’s the type a girl would love to cling to because of how well he treats her.
Besides, I doubt Tanner would be with her in his room.
I sigh once again, managing to maintain a smile even though no one is watching. It’s a little disappointing that she chose someone else instead of me.
I had hoped that when she was finally over her hate for us, I would finally be able to approach her and we could be like two peas in a pod.
I pick up the file and go through it to distract myself. I need to hand it to Tanner since he’s in charge of the business.
Sometimes, I wonder how he does it. Having to sit and think up ideas that will work, while also calculating numbers and so many other things that are needed for the growth of a business.
I only work with my fists, which is why I needed an accountant when I was still a boxer.
The moans stop and the door opens. I look up immediately despite the fact that I’d convinced myself that I wouldn’t be doing that.
What does it matter who comes out of the room? All that matters is that it’s not you.
“Tanner?” I stare at him in shock.Okay, that’s surprising.
“The little princess is bored, and we should all try to entertain her so she doesn’t lose her mind in this safe house. I doubt that’ll benefit anyone. I’ve done my part.”
He grins and winks before heading in the direction of his room. I stare after him, a little surprised.
Could she really have said that? Tanner has always been a bit of an asshole, and while that’s usually funny when it’s just us, things are different now.
Although making her uncomfortable could be fun, especially since she already thinks badly of me, I don’t care to be at loggerheads with her or be screamed at for a misunderstanding.
I look at the closed door once again.
What if he’s telling the truth though?
What if she truly does want us to keep her company so she doesn’t get bored? I’ll be very much obliged to do so if she asks it of me, but will she do that?
Fucking Tanner has gone and put such thoughts in my head.
I run my hand over my head.
I truly hope she hasn’t gotten attached to Tanner just yet and there’s still a chance for me.
Fuck. Look at me acting like a school lad. There’s no way this is me.
I chuckle at the ridiculousness of the situation, and yet, I can't get it out of my head.
Why do I care so much?
I’ve never cared about anything or anyone like this before, and yet, I can’t shake the feeling that this is something special and I would be a fool to let it go without at least trying.
Chapter 15

Ugh… What the fuck is going on? Why do I feel this way?
