I’m going to fucking kill him.

I lost track of Magnolia after her loser boyfriend hit me in the face. That asshole can’t even stick around to fight it out. He bailed out like the little bitch he is.

Since Landen’s keeping an eye on Noah, I focus on finding Travis. I need to stop him before he takes advantage of Magnolia in her drugged-up state.

Sprinting outside and between parked cars, I find Travis pushing her into the back of a black SUV. He shouts something at her, and when he nearly slams the door into her bare foot, I see red.

As he rounds the back, I whip open her door and remove her buckle. “Get out. Now.Quick.”

Her eyes shoot to mine as Travis notices from the other side.

“The fuck?” he grumbles, reaching for her across the seat.

I push Magnolia against the seat, then lean over her body and slam my fist in Travis’s face. He curses, flailing back and cupping his nose.

When I hear my truck’s engine roaring behind me, I grab Magnolia’s hand and launch her over my shoulder.

“Hey!” she squeals.

When Landen hops out of the driver’s seat and opens the back, I set her down and motion for her to scoot over so I can sit next to her since Noah’s in the passenger seat. But either way, I’m not giving Travis another opportunity to take her.

As I shut the door, this asshole grabs it and tries to pry it open. I lean back, covering Magnolia from him, and with all my strength, slam my boot into his chest. When he falters, I grab the handle and slam it closed.

“Go, go, go!” I yell at Landen.

The tires squeal against the pavement, and when we finally hit the main road, I blow out a breath. “Jesus fuck. He’s like the Ghostface inScreamwho never dies.”

“Technically, there were several Ghostfaces,” Noah tells me, and I thank her with an eye roll.

“You okay, Sunny?” I ask Magnolia and notice her eye twitching. “Come here.”

The events of what happened tonight with the rush of serotonin hitting her bloodstream are confusing her on how she should be feeling right now.

“I’m so horny right now,” she blurts out with a laugh. “Do you wanna do anal?”

I blink hard. “The fuck did you just say?”

“What? That’s why Travis gave it to me, so it wouldn’t hurt. Would hate for it to go to waste now.”

That sick motherfucker.I’m going to kill him.

I should’ve kicked him in the dick instead, so he couldn’t ever use it again.

“I don’t care how high or horny I am, there’s no way a cock is touchin’ my booty hole,” Noah says, then turns and adds, “I poop out of there.”

My nostrils flare and inhale a long, frustrated breath.Dear God, please erase that sentence from my sister’s mouth out of my mind fucking immediately.

“Okay, so no anal.” Magnolia nods as if it was even on thetable. “We could sixty-nine, doggy, reverse cowgirl, or hell, eat whipped cream off each other. I’m game for any of those.”

Fuck me.I shouldn’t have let her kiss me or played into her little BJ shot game because her listing a variety of sex positions is getting me hard now that I know how her lips feel against mine. Her telling me to kneel and open my mouth should’ve been my clue. But I saw the way Travis was treating her tonight and wanted her to have a good time on her birthday.

“Tulip, no one’s havin’ sex tonight.”Unfortunately.

Magnolia frowns and her nostrils flare, which is freaking adorable, but I’m not giving in no matter how much my dick wants to.

“How about you, Landen? We did go on that date. Wanna continue it in the bedroom? I’m way more flexible now.”

His eyes shoot to mine in the rearview mirror, and I want to smack that grin off his smug face. I never admitted to him that I like Magnolia even after they decided to stay friends, but a part of me wonders if he suspects it.
