come in and get more information on us.”
“Bro, I really think we should speak to Evie.”
“What did Liam say?”
He glances away, letting out a sigh. “That there were videos of her in her flat. One of you and her here at the office.”
“Fucking bitch,” I swear, tasting the bitter words on my tongue.
She is gone.
I take one last look at Jaxon before storming out, the door slamming against the warehouse wall from the force.
“Wyatt! Where are you going?” Jaxon yells, chasing after me.
“To get her out of our fucking lives.”
“What are you going to do?”
I stop, facing all three of my brothers, my fists clenched. I’m disgusted they’d even think I’d hurt a woman, even though I badly want to. “I’m getting her stuff. She can find somewhere fucking else to whore herself out. Because that’s what she did.” I laugh again as I walk away, still talking. “I can’t believe I thought we had our whole lives ahead of us. I’m so fucking stupid.”
“Maybe you should calm down,” Eli suggests.
“Are you not fucking mad?” I snap, stopping again.
“Of course I’m fucking mad. I’m livid. But maybe there is more to the story than what Black said.”
I turn to Jaxon, arching my eyebrow. “You nearly lost Lily and your unborn baby.”
“Lily’s pregnant?” Eli gushes, smiling at Jaxon, then frowns, his mind clearly clicking on to my point.
Boiling with fury, Jaxon grinds his teeth together. “Don’t.”
“She’s been giving him information. You said yourself you thought it could be her, but I was too strung up on her pussy to even question her being a fake. She’s been informing on us the whole time. She double-crossed us and we let her.”
Jaxon steps forward. “I fucking know what happened, Wyatt, and I’m just as furious as you. In fact, the second Liam confirmed it, I wanted to kill her. But something doesn’t add up for me. Liam said—”
“And what’s to add up? She’s his daughter,” I bark sarcastically. “Not all girls are like Lily. They aren’t perfect and pure. Evie was spreading her legs for information. It’s simple. She was selling herself for her father. That’s a definition of a whore, Jaxon, and nothing you say can change that.”
“That’s what I don’t get,” he says, pointing at me. “I’ve seen her with you. She truly loves you. That’s not a lie.”
I rear back like he has punched me. “Then you are blind because she took me for a fool,” I roar, slamming my fist against my chest. “No one who loves someone would do that. She made me fall for her. She wanted me to, and probably laughed to her dad behind my back the entire time, stating what a fucking twat I am.”
“Wyatt, stop—”
“No!” I bellow. “You don’t get it. None of you do. I loved her. I pictured a life together and it was a lie. I don’t just feel humiliated, Jaxon, I’m fucking broken and so fucking furious I could tear down a building right now and not break a sweat.” I take in a heavy breath, feeling my pulse racing. “Until you have had your heart ripped out by someone you loved, someone you trusted, shut the fuck up. I’ve stood by you through everything, even when I knew it was going to end bad with Carter’s.
“A traitor has come into our family, wormed her way into each of our lives and done it to be deceiving, so she could spy. Why you aren’t angry is beyond me, and I don’t want to hear any more.”
I carry on to the bed and breakfast, ignoring the others telling me to calm down. I can’t be calm. The woman I love has deceived me. I’m an idiot, and she played me like a fiddle.
A few minutes later, we are walking up the road to the bed and breakfast. Paisley, hearing our approach, looks up from watering her plants, her smile dropping when she takes a good look at us. “What’s going on?”
“What’s going on?” I yell. “What’s going on is that Evie is a fucking slag who has come here to spy on us.”
“What?” she asks, looking to Jaxon for answers. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
“Oh, don’t worry, we didn’t know she was Andrew Black’s daughter either.”
Her eyes widen and her hands begin to shake. “What? No! She said her dad was dead.”
“Yeah, because she’s a sick bitch and knew it would tug on our heart strings.”
Her face reddens. “Why are you here then? She isn’t here.”
