And that’s all I tell her. It’s enough. I’m an open-minded person, and like I told Hunter, I absolutely believe that we’re all capable of a lot, given the right motivation and circumstances.

But I don’t want anyone else.

She glances at me once—then again—and I see her purse her lips as she races onto the bridge and kicks it up a gear. “And he’s loved you forever.”

She sighs, and I know she believes me.

“You could tell?” I ask.

She simply chuckles under her breath, speeding into Shelburne Falls. “Everyone could.”

So even though Kade was overreacting, he wasn’t wrong. He knew ten years ago.

“What’s Dad going to do?” I ask.

“Something that will ruin our day, I’m sure.”

I fold my arms over my chest, balling my fists and tensing every muscle, far too anxious. We need to get there.

All I can say is I’m glad I fell for a guy more like Madoc than like my dad or Jax. Those kinds of tempers aren’t conducive to my personality. Whoever falls in love with Kade will either need to be a saint or have a temper that rivals his.

We fly through town, but not fast enough. I’m tapping my foot, and not at all hiding the fact that I’m checking her speed the whole way there.

She’s only going five miles over the speed limit. “Ugh.”

She shoots me a look but continues at the same pace.

As soon as we pull into Madoc’s driveway, I see everyone in front of the house—Kade, Hunter, Fallon, Madoc, A.J., and my dad. My dad’s car door hangs open, the parking lights lit up.

“Oh, God,” I groan. He didn’t even take a split-second to turn off his car?

Mom speeds in, skidding to a halt, and she and I hop out of the vehicle. I hear their raised voices as we run over. Hunter casts me a worried look.

“What the hell happened?” Madoc shouts, dressed only in sleep pants. Fallon is, thankfully, dressed in jeans and a fitted gray Pirate hoodie. She wears her glasses with her hair swept up into a messy bun as she stands in front of her twin sons.

“I want them both gone.” My dad sticks his finger in Madoc’s face. “You send them to wherever your people send rich kids for school. You understand?”

“Don’t talk to me about what to do with my own kids,” Madoc retorts and then looks around. “Someone tell me what the hell is going on!”

“He found us in bed with Dylan,” Kade tells him.

Madoc’s eyes go round.

“Nothing happened,” Hunter rushes to add.

“They were practically naked!” Dad growls.

“None of us were naked,” Kade says.

“Dad, nothing happened,” Hunter explains. “There was a party in Weston, Kade and I were drinking, and we were teasing Dylan. We never meant to fall asleep.”

Madoc looks at them over his shoulder. “You guys were drinking?” His tone is light, surprised. “Together?”

He sounds so happy that they were together, he doesn’t give a shit they were drinking underage.

My dad exhales hard. “No parent in their right mind would believe that story.”

“Everyone’s telling you the same story,” I say, moving in.
