“Yesterday. At the winery.”
I almost choke.
Molly and I did a lot of things at the winery, and it was way more than kissing.
I thought we’d kept things pretty low-key and hidden over the weekend. Then I remember her almost chaste kiss on my lips when I won the game for us.
I’ve already admitted we were sleeping together so it’s a moot point, I guess.
“Did you find her?” Levi shows up. I shake my head and glance around the room, feeling a mix of anger and disappointment.
Gone.
She just damn well left.
It’s clear she didn’t want to talk it out. Whateveritis. I wasn’t flirting with anyone except her.
And it wasn’t fucking flirting.
Did she not feel what I did last night?
Nothing?
I don’t believe that.
Something else is going on here.
If Molly left because she saw me talking to some woman, then perhaps this former fiancé of hers really did a number on her.
That’s not something I should be held accountable for. Or punished for.
I think back to our last words.
Flirt with? I think we’ve been doing more than flirting.
Yeah well, as you said the first time, we shouldn’t have done that.
I feel like I’ve missed something.
“I’m going to try calling her,” Payton says, turning to leave and wandering down the hall.
“Atlas. Please tell me you didn—”
“Finish that sentence and I’ll fucking punch you. Yes, at your wedding.” I growl at Knox.
He lets out a deep sigh. The kind parents give. It makes me want to punch him twice.
Still he waits.
“Fuck’s sake. It was consensual, okay? I thought Molly liked me as much as I like her.” I glare at both my brothers. “Never question me like that again.”
Knox nods with a slither of shame and leaves the room to follow his bride.
“For the record, I wasn’t asking. I thought Molly had the hots for you all weekend. Doesn’t surprise me that you two hooked up,” Levi says and sits on the end of the bed.
“Yeah well, something has upset her, and I’m fucked if I know what it is.” I sigh, leaning against the wall and rubbing a hand over my face.
I’m mad with her for leaving but also worried.
