I slip into the kitchen, Amy lurks on the other side of the fridge, hiding

herself as I keep the lights off.

I don’t know what I’m going to do, but Megan Martelle sure as shit won’t

be here when Liv gets home.

The door opens.

“Liv?” she calls out again. “Hello?”

I kick one of the chairs at the table, hoping she’ll follow the noise, and

then I park half my ass on the table, waiting for her.

She rounds the corner, coming into view, and I let my eyes trail down her

skirt and legs and wonder if she’s wearing any underwear. She’s dressed to

get laid, and my anger rises. What did they have planned tonight?

She sees me and stops. She takes a step back.

“Team meeting?” I ask. “It’s kind of late.”

Amy steps away from the refrigerator, and I see Megan’s back go

straight, her guard up.

It fucking should be.

“Go get Krisjen,” I tell Amy.

She leaves, and Megan searches the wall for a light, asking, “What’s

going on?”

But I speak up before she can find it. “You tell me.” Tears burn my eyes.

“What are you doing to her? Am I next? Do you watch us in the showers?”

“What?”

Vomit rises up my throat. I hate all the shit coming out of my damn

mouth. Megan isn’t bad. She’s weak and a little annoying, but she isn’t

hurting Liv. If anything, Liv was in control in that video.

And that’s why I took it down. I couldn’t stand it. Liv was into it in the

car with her. So into it, and it hurt.

She raises her chin. “I’m going to Father McNealty tomorrow and

reporting you.”

I laugh, the bitterness choked through the tears that she can’t see in the

dark. “Please do.”

I hop off the table and approach her. “You’ll have to tell him why I’m so

angry with you and what you’re doing at a student’s house, late on a Saturday

night. Then, he’s going to find out it was you in the sex tape with her, and

you will never get another job again.”

“Screw you, Clay!” she yells. “I have family too, and they’re not the

Jaegers whom you think you can bully.”
