“Because of me? I told you not to worry about that. Emmie can handle anything that might happen if they try to file charges against me.”

“I don’t even want to think about you in a jail cell,” I whispered, looking out the passenger side window without seeing the scenery.

My phone went off, and I knew who it was before I even looked at the screen.

“Hey, Aubree,” I greeted in a tired voice.

“Sin beat the fuck out of three guys for you. That is beyond hot.”

I closed my eyes, pressing my head into the seat. “So it’s already on TMZ?”

“It’s everywhere,” she confirmed. “It’s the number one item trending on social media right now, actually. I’ve seen the same video from about ten different angles already. I’m kind of pissed I wasn’t there to see it live.”

“Can we talk about this when I get home?”

“Yeah, I’m just checking that you’re okay. And to have you tell Sin that I’m impressed with how he made that second douchebag puke so easily.”

I lowered the receiver to relay the message. “Aubree says good job making that guy blow chunks.”

His lips twitched with amusement. “Glad to provide some Monday night entertainment.”

“Anyone get arrested?” Aubree asked.

“No. I didn’t press charges—"

“Why the fuck not?” she exploded before I could finish.

“Because they could have turned around and pressed charges against Sin,” I told her calmly. “I’m not talking about this right now. I’ll be home soon.”

“Fine,” she grumbled with a sigh.

I hung up and dropped my phone into my lap, returning my gaze back to the passenger window.

At the next red light, Sin’s fingers tangled in my hair. I turned, already anticipating his kiss, and met him halfway. It wasn’t one of the usual soft kisses or the hungry devouring ones. This was different on every level. His free hand cupped the side of my face a

s his lips teased over mine, making me promises I didn’t understand.

A honk behind us had him lifting his head. The light was green now, and the car behind us was impatient for him to get moving.

“Don’t shut me out.”

I swallowed hard. “I’ll try.”

That was all I could promise him right then.

Chapter 19

Sin

“Do I want to know what happened last night?”

I grunted at the sound of Kassa’s voice in my ear. I’d picked up my phone when I saw Gray’s number, but I should have known it would be her. “If you saw the videos circulating on social media and all the entertainment news channels, you already know what happened.”

“Oh, I’ve seen plenty of those. Jace just said the Tainted Knights page is flooded with them too. I was more curious as to what happened before all of that took place.”

“Not really in the mood to give you the rundown, Kas,” I told her. “You need anything else?”

“Are you with Roanna?” she asked me point-blank.
