Eva looked up at me with those gorgeous green eyes that made me want to conquer the world and hand it to her on a platter. “As if I have a choice.”

“None,” Cole cheerfully agreed then smacked her ass. We both watched it jiggle magnificently as she scowled. “Now let’s go shower so you can get on your knees, and we can get to morning practice.”

“Coffee,”I snapped at Cole as we rushed out the door. I didn’t need it in the morning, but Eva did, and dammit, even after her betrayal, after seeing her with Cole, I still wanted to give her what she deserved.

Fuck him for all of this. I liked her, everything about her,and my heart hurt so fucking bad that Cole was fucking her too.

“We’ll be late for practice.”

“Then you should have set an alarm before kidnapping me,” Eva snapped.

“Were we supposed to leave you in the locker room, completely out of it, and just hope you got home okay?” Cole snapped right back.

“I want coffee, and I want breakfast,” she said, her chin tilted up with bravado. Relief swept through me—we hadn’t fucked up so bad last night she didn’t feel like she could speak up for herself.

“Why should I care what you want?” he asked.

“Cole,” I growled, a warning.

He looked at me, his head tilted as if carefully deliberating. He should have been. The fury coursing through me was unlike me, as was the sheer possessiveness when it came to Eva.

“Fine,” he agreed as he grabbed Eva’s bags from her shoulder and tossed them into the trunk.

“I—My wallet’s in there,” she grumbled.

“You don’t need it,” I snapped at her. “Now get in the fucking car.”

“Wow, Tristan, way to let me know your morning blow job was utterly ineffective at relieving your stress. Maybe it’s time to let me out of this deal, since I’m so fucking bad at it.”

Oh, that was fucking it.

I stormed over and caged her against the door to Cole’s car, my thighs between hers, my hands on the roof, our entire bodies pressed together.

She stared up at me, working so fucking hard to conceal the misery in her eyes. I hated Cole for putting me in this position, because I did love it. I loved how she trembledagainst me, how she’d cried last night when we forced her, and then how gloriously she’d come, the feeling of her hot mouth in the shower this morning?—

My cock stirred against her, and all the bravado went out of Eva in a woosh. I didn’t say a word, just looked down at her, trying to decide what I wanted.

I didn’t know. So I shoved myself away from her so I could fucking think. “Get in the car.”

Silently, she did as I commanded, slipping into the back seat. She clutched her stomach, folding in on herself, as if she could hide.

Cole slid into the driver’s seat, and I climbed in. “Sit in the middle so I can push the seat back,” I ordered, and I adjusted his fucking tiny car to fit my large frame. “Coffee,” I snapped again as Cole pulled out of the driveway.

When we pulled up to the drive through, Cole ordered, rattling off her coffee order like he’d memorized it, then graciously remained silent when I leaned over him to order egg and spinach wraps for all three of us.

“What if I don’t want an egg and spinach wrap?” Eva asked sullenly from the back seat.Brat.

I turned around to stare at her, her red curls wild around her face, no makeup, her full lips pinched—a far cry from the put together queen we usually saw running errands for Dr. Parker at practice. My heart melted, just a little bit, at her bravery.

You don’t have to be brave for me, Eva.Not that I would tell her that, not yet. First, I had to untangle this fucking mess with her and Cole and figure out what the fuck the bratva wanted with my team.

“You’ll eat what I give you,” I said.

“Don’t worry, sparrow,” Cole said as he paid with hisblack credit card. “Tristan’s a health nut. It might not be delicious, but it’ll be nourishing.”

“Spinach is gross,” she muttered, eyeing the wrap with disdain.

“Spinach is full of nutrients,” I said, maybe a little more sanctimoniously than I normally would have, but I was a mess inside. I was desperately trying not to take it out on either of them until I figured out what I wanted.
