“Get out!”

Mark turned and left.

“You shouldn’t have done that,” Jamie said, struggling to his feet.

“He hit you, Jamie. He’s lost his mind.”

“It was clearly an accident,” Jamie said. “And something’s obviously going on with him.”

“Yeah, he’s taking liberties with Maddy.”

“You didn’t think there was anything about that story that was worth looking into?”

“Why he thinks we’re stupid enough to believe it, maybe.”

“I don’t know why you always have to provoke him.”

“Provoke him? Are you seriously blaming me for what he did?”

“I wanted us to have a calm discussion,” Jamie said. “You’re the one who escalated it.”

“No way,” Harley said. “This is all his fault. He’s the one who divided us in Oregon. And you, of all people, should know that.” He turned and strode out of the room, slamming the door behind him, leaving Jamie on his own to ponder how this conversation had gone so far off the rails.

“Is everyone mad atme?” Maddy asked Harley.

He sighed and set aside the magazine he’d been flipping through. “It’s not that simple,” he said.

“It’s not?”

“We’re mad at Mark. Not at you.”

Maddy had thought that the Hell’s Wolves would be able to see the signs of sex all over her the moment she came back to the house. It had certainlyfeltobvious. But to her surprise—and immense relief—nobody had said anything at first. That was good, because Maddy still hadn’t been sure how she felt about what had happened. Better that she should have some time to work out her feelings for herself before having to explain her actions to the rest of the pack.

But her relief had been short lived. The moment Mark had come back to the house, Harley and Jamie had pulled him away to talk. Even though she hadn’t been included in that conversation, Maddy had known what it must be about. There was only one thing itcouldbe about. And all three of them had emerged looking cold and angry.
