Chuck sneered. “One little party, out in the middle of nowhere? Nothing’s been announced. All anyone will ever remember of this event and your little film school project is some sentimental slop about the old company. It’s time for a new chapter—and I know exactly which of your colleagues can help me write it.”
The Douchebros.
Oh God. Everything I had worked on so hard…
“You—you—” Hunter’s fist rose, and for a terrible second I thought he was about to hit Chuck. I grabbed at his arm and the look he shot me was so poisonous I stumbled back, shocked.
Hunter growled, and stormed from the room.
I wanted to stay, wanted to argue the board members back around—they could be reasonable, I knew I could make them see reason—but—
But Hunter needed me.
I raced after him, trying not to trip in my heels. “Hunter! Hunter, slow down! We can go back, we can fix this—”
He whirled unexpectedly, grabbing my arm. “Did you say those things?” he hissed.
“Yes, but—”
He let go and backed away, looking at me as if I were a snake.
“Hunter, you have to understand—”
“I don’t have to understand anything,” he growled. “And certainly not you.” Pain lit his eyes. “I believed in you, Ally. I believed in you and you stabbed me in the back and ruined—the, the one thing that mattered most to me.”
I opened my mouth, tried to think of something to say. Nothing came out.
He squeezed his eyes shut and when he opened them again the pain was gone. There was nothing there but ice. “I want nothing more to do with you. Pack your bags and leave.”
