Tricked Steel (Steel Crew #5) - M.J. Fields Page 0,92

my phone.

When she came out, she threw it at me and told me that she messaged them all. She said she wasn’t sorry.

Then she tried to leave.

I didn’t let her.

She broke down and cried.

How fucked up is it that I think she’s even more beautiful when she cries?

Apparently, pretty fucked up, or so she said when she locked me out of the room for another hour. Then she let me back in, apologized profusely, and fell asleep.

When I came out of the room to order some takeout for when she woke up, the phone was pinging notifications left and right.

When I opened the first, I found it funny. She had told a hook-up that my doctor informed me that:

My itchy anus wasn’t caused by my monthly hemorrhoidal flare-up; it was caused by an STI that I may have passed on to you and numerous others. Please get checked out and learn a lesson from our indiscretion.

Regards,

Patrick Steel,

ex manwhore.

It wasn’t funny when a receptionist at my parents’ company messaged me that she was,

“… sorry about the issues you’re having. I think you sent this to me by mistake. Healing prayers and congratulations on your recovery.

*prayer hands*

And I was even more pissed when I scrolled through and found out she had sent that to every female in my DMs.

I really flipped my shit when Truth sent me a text and told me to look at all my tags on IG, Snap, and TikTok.

I drafted a post saying I had been hacked. It wasn’t a lie.

When Savvy/Sutton finally wakes up, she looks dejected as she holds up her phone, my old phone, the one I gave her, the one she still has, and says, “I’m sorry.”

“I’ll forgive you, but you gotta stop thinking you don’t belong with me.”

She nods as I sit back and she climbs on my lap, running her fingers over my chest. “What’s the number seven on your chest?”

“The ink?” I ask, knowing exactly what she’s talking about.

She nods.

“Seventh girl I kissed, owned my heart. Felt fitting.”

She looks up at me through her long as hell lashes. “Me?”

“Only girl I’ve ever said I love you to, only girl I’ll ever love. Only girl I want forever with.”

She smiles. “Me?”

“Only you.”

Your support and ‘Forever Steel’ kind of love means the world to me.

Thank you Autumn for taking care of everything so that I can write and occasionally breathe.

You are amazing, I hope you know that I appreciate everything you so daily.

Big love to you both!

Thank you Julianna for making the beautiful cover.

Thank you to the amazing bloggers who show me love and support, my ARC team that cheers me on and devours all my books and want more, reviewers who take the time to share the love of my words, through their own, and to all my readers—all over the world— who read my work; without you, I would not be able to do what I love the most,

write about the most important thing in the universe…

LOVE.

And to my real world ‘Steel Crew’,

We work, we do good, we laugh, and we love each other just as much as the characters in these books.

I am Forever grateful and blessed to live amongst you, and raise my girl with you,

So much love

And
