My body was still weak, and my head was
spinning.
Jason shoved me behind him, glaring at
Carter.
“What the hell are you doing? If you’re sick,
go back to the psych ward.’
“”
That was enough to push Carter over the
edge, like it had triggered something.
Carter swung at Jason, his eyes blood red.
“Dude, you don’t mess with another man’s
girl!”

‘Jason, we’ve
een friends for twenty years.

“Actually, I was just using you.”

I was so annoyed, my head was filled with
rage at having my meal interrupted.
“What’s impossible about it? From the start, I
