I had to have cut her off in traffic or so

“Um, yes,” I said “You want me to sit?”

“Stand,” she replied stiltedly

She looked faure out why

I figured out why a few

I knew he arrived because my nipples all of a sudden stood at attention

Nohether that was due to the cold gust of air as he opened the door, or the fact that he was in the vicinity, I didn’t know But whatever the reason, they were definitely very much aware he was close

That’s when I saw that you could see the entire parking lot fro better attention, I would’ve been able to see Laric arriving through the large plate-glass s

I smiled at his appearance and turned back to see Chastity looking at me like she wanted to reach forward and yankmy messy bun

I blinked

Her eyes narrowed, and then a smile lit her face

“So how long have you been dating Laric?” the very pissed off and trying to hide it woman asked

“U to ansith the truth—that eren’t dating—because I didn’t want to go into the explanation of why Laric was dogging my steps I didn’t kno to answer

She frowned hard at er

Why was she so freakin’ familiar?

“Do I know you?” I finally asked, unable to help myself

Chastity cleared her throat “Laric and I used to date You ”

No, that wasn’t it

I hadn’t seen photos of the woman at all In fact, of the photos that Laric had in his house—I would know since I’d been studying everything that wasn’t nailed down over the last few days—not one single one had been of a girl

Hell, none of them had even been of an adult

They’d all been of dogs or young children with their dogs

There were no women Period

Shein close, and a scar on her right eyebrow caught ht looked like a complete circle inside of a circle A bullseye

That’s when I realized who she was

The chick at the beginning of Laric’s video

The one that I was fairly sure he had no clue about

The one that I needed to tell him about

The one that, if I was right about, would get him severely pissed off

I bit my lip
