I yelped, arching beneath him.
“I would fuck you in his blood and make him watch.”
Somehow, I knew it wasn’t Corbin he was referring to. I had heard quite often how he didn’t like Matt. Not that I had actually ever dated him. I only let Vince believe I did. Matt had moved anyway, so it wasn’t like I would ever see him again.
“You know Matt and I were never a thing, right?” I straddled Vince’s lap, pushing him onto his back.
Vince lifted me to my knees and dropped me onto him. “Say that again.”
I sighed, shaking my head as the memories burned through me.
“Someone’s in love.”
My head popped up.
Corbin came toward me, a wide smile on his face.
I stood from the table and stretched out my arms. “Someone needs to mind his own business,” I threw back at him, but I couldn’t help the smile pulling at my lips.
He chuckled, wrapping me up in a hug. “How’s my girl?”
“Good. You?” When he didn’t answer, I leaned back. “What’s wrong?”
The smile fell from his face. “It’s nothing, baby girl. Just work crap. Don’t worry about it.”
“Uh, I have to worry about it.” Corbin was the type of guy who worried about everyone else but not himself. “Talk to me.” I sat in the chair, my stomach clenching at the worry evident on his face.
“It’s not important.” He gave me a small smile, sitting back in his chair and picking up the menu. “Now, should I get one of these new fancy cakes or try a salad?”
“Corbin, maybe I can help with whatever issue is going on,” I said gently.
“I’ve heard some things.” He placed the menu on the table between us. “I don’t like gossiping. In fact, I hate it. It makes me feel low, but it’s hard not to hear what’s being said when people aren’t discreet about their conversations.”
I sat forward. “Okay, now you got me really interested.”
He chuckled, rubbing a hand over his bald head. “Your friend Piper is famous.”
“What?” My eyes widened. “How? And how do you even know Piper?”
“I don’t know her exactly. I just knowwhoshe is. I’ve seen her pick up Cyrus and Sammy from time to time whenever they drink too much.”
“Oh.” I didn’t even realize he knew the twins. I had only met them a few times but being in the Hell’s Harlem MC alongside Jaron and Shade, I knew they would do anything to keep their own safe. Including Piper.
“She’s Jaron’s girl and she’s the only one who has ever been able to capture his heart,” Corbin continued. “That says a lot about her.”
I stared at him. “Really?”
He nodded. “Jaron had a thing with Candace. Not saying they were serious. Especially when she was married to Ronny through all of it but…there was definitely something there.”
My stomach twisted. Piper and Jaron had enough problems. They didn’t need a jealous husband, or a crazy ex added to that list. “Does Ronny know?”
“He does. Whatever Candace and he have, it’s toxic but it works for them, I guess. I don’t know. But I overheard a couple of the girls talking about it. Bottom line is, Piper needs to be careful.”
“Do you think something’s going to happen?” I asked, my heart jumping.
“No but that doesn’t mean anything.”
“I’ll warn her.” I gave him a small smile of reassurance and made a mental note to text Piper later.
