I take a swig of my beer and let my gaze wander, roaming up and down her backside.

I nod in approval as I raise my eyebrows, smiling. “If you do, I want details. That’s prime tush right there.”

Just as I say it, Livianna’s burning stare catches my eye. She’s standing with a pretty little blonde girl at the bottom of the stairs, glaring in my direction. She shakes her head and storms around the corner toward the bar area.

Shit!I’ve been caught.

“Fucking hell.” I growl as I push off the bar to chase Livianna down. “Guns, you dick. You always get me in hot water with your sister by talking about other chicks.”

Bren hits me with the back of his hand. “Bro, she’s headed this way and she’s a smokeshow.”

I glance at the girl I just got busted checking out as she sways our way.

I freeze. “What the fuck is she doing here?”

“You know her?”

“Uh…yeah. You could say that.” My heart stops and sputters to start.

Her sparkling hazel eyes beam my way as if I’m in a spotlight. She smirks like she’s got me cornered, and she does.

I am so screwed.

Bren gazes at her, then back at me. “Who is she?”

“Her name is Faith.” My head grows light. “Faith Thorne.”

“You mean the girl who took your virginity?”

“That would be the one.”

“Aw, fuck no, bro. Liv is gonna?—”

“Hi, Cash.” Faith steps a few feet before me, reaches up to the white gold Celtic trinity knot necklace with the black onyx in the center she’s wearing, and cups it in her hands. “I was hoping I’d run into you tonight.”

Chapter Nineteen

LIVIANNA/LILY

Then

The Girl Who Shouldn’t Exist

She spoke like a memory I never made. And suddenly, I wasn’t real anymore.

Iseethe inside and pace before Gia. “Did you see him checking her out?”

“Not really, Livianna.” She tucks her long blonde hair behind her ear. “I saw your brother point at her and then Cash looked her way.”

“Gia, you’re great, but you’re too nice. You don’t think anyone is bad.”

“I…don’t see the point in getting upset until you know all the facts.”

“I know what I saw. Callum was definitely into her.” I stomp behind the bar and find the Fireball my parents keep in the minibar. “Do you want some?”

Gia shrugs. “Sure, but?—”

“You can stay the night. I’m not getting drunk by myself when Callum is out there with that bitch.”
