Joshua is being blackmailed and he hasn’t even told me, but he told Abbie and Abbie didn’t tell me? I am furious, I have never been so mad in my entire life. I leave the bathroom and storm through the club to the staircase and I take them two at a time. When I get to the top I look around and I see Abbie still arguing with TC up against the wall and Ben is standing over them with his hand around TC’s arm obviously about to throw her out. Joshua, Cameron and Adrian are about three meters away glaring at them. Joshua’s nervous eyes find me through the crowd, and he starts to walk toward me in a rush.

“Let’s go, baby,” he murmurs way too fast.

I grab his drink for him en route to the girls and storm over to them and throw it straight in TC’s face.

It’s as if the whole club stops silent. The boys’ horrified eyes widen and everyone collectively holds their breath.

I slap her hard across the face. “I know about the tape, you dirty whore!” I scream.

Her eyes widen as she steps back from me, she can tell I’m a donkey on the edge. “I am going straight to the police and you will be charged,” I yell.

She laughs in my face and further infuriates me. The guards all wrestle her and lead her out.

I turn to Joshua as contempt drips from my every pore. My eyes hold his.

“Natasha,” he gasps.

I hold my hand up to him in a defensive manner. “Don’t,” I yell.

I am way too mad to listen to his crap. All three boys look like they have seen a ghost and are silent and wide-eyed.

My eyes flick around, and embarrassment fills me. Everybody here knows what is going on but me, he has made a fool of me once again.

“Natasha,” Abbie grabs my arm.

I pull it from her grip. “Stay the hell away from me,” I yell.
