Haze nods, grinning. “I’m not completely useless in the kitchen, you know? But I get it if you only prefer one chef in here. Can I get you something to drink?”

“I’ll take a beer,” Lore says, pulling out a chair and sitting. He doesn’t look like he’s going anywhere anytime soon. He either can’t read a room or doesn’t care, and I’m pretty sure it’s the latter.

“I’ll have a vodka and cranberry juice, please,” I order.

Haze clips the back of Lore’s head as he leaves the kitchen, and Lore cuts his violet eyes to me. “You naughty little cupcake. Everyone is waiting to hear about what happened last night in the group chat.”

My brows furrow as I start chopping some onions. “How would you know what happens in the group chat?”

I pause and look over at him when he stays quiet, only to see him smirking. “I got an honorary add. Something about me being a gossip.”

I slide my phone out of my jeans pocket and check the chat titled ‘Baddies.’ Lo and behold, Lore has been added to the group by Ora, and there’s a picture of his ripped abs for his profile. I scroll through to see what I’ve missed.

Ora

Lore said Haze is in your room. OMG!

Xanthe

It’s about time!

Ora

I just walked past your room because I’m nosey. Damn, girl. What is he doing to you in there?

Xanthe

Ora! Boundaries.

Ora

I just wanted to make sure she was okay! I knew they were going to give in to all that sexual tension at some point.

Ora

By the way, Daisy walked past. She looks pissed!

Ora added Lore to the chat.

Xanthe

Oh boy. What happened to this being a no-penis zone?

Lore

Hey! You love penis. I’ve seen what you read.

Ora

I told you not to touch my Kindle!

Xanthe

Hahaha.

Lore

Xanthe, why aren’t you staying at the clubhouse?
