My eyes snap to him and narrow.

“Something in him changed,” he continues.

“No shit. He’s insane.”

I came over to Dorian’s after working out to try and blow off some more steam, but he just ended up pissing me off.

“You’re such a fucking cheater,” I spit.

“Hey now, don’t be a sore loser just because I have more time to practice than you do now.”

“That’s fine.” I spin to face him. “Wait. Don’t you have a date?”

He runs his fingers through his hair and sucks in a breath through his teeth.
