Lu
True. I feel like Lore is worse than Haze though. He’s a heartbreaker. He loves women.
Lore
He is right here.
Xanthe
I think Lore can be faithful to the right woman.
Lore
Xanthe, love you too.
Lu
See. Maybe stop telling women you love them.
Lore
As a friend.
Lu
What if Atiana tells Suit or Bones she loves them as friends?
Lore
Why did you choose those two? Has Suit hit on her again?
Lu
Oh boy.
Ora
See, he’s jealous. He normally never gets jealous. He fucks women and passes them along. He clearly doesn’t want any other man to have Atiana.
Lore
NO! I definitely don’t.
Lu
Prove it. And be quick about it. Suit is going to ask her out.
Lore
I’ll kill him first.
ATIANA
“Why the hell don’t I come here more often?” Xanthe mutters, lowering her sunglasses to check the men out. Ora introduced her to me, and she seems lovely. She’s a teacher, and apparently isn’t with any of the MC brothers.
Ora smirks, picking up a grape from the platter we made and popping it into her mouth. “Have you seen Romeo? He’s hot. Not to mention Curse and Rune. Wow.”
We’re sitting outside by the pool, watching the men building the playground. They’ve let Rider help them, although he’s mostly just supervising. Lore has his shirt off and is currently distracting me so much that I can’t think straight. He’s gotten much more ink since I last saw him, and it looks sexy as hell on him. He winks at me when he catches my eye, and I quickly look away, my cheeks heating.
