DAEMON
Ikeep my focus on the pan in front of me and allow myself to drown in the scent of the frying bacon as Ant moves closer to Calli and drops down in the seat beside her.
For the longest time, nothing is said and I’m able to breathe easy.
But then the deep rumble of his voice floats through the air and every muscle in my body tenses.
Glancing over, I find him leaning into her space, studying her as if he owns her as he speaks.
His voice is too low to hear what he’s saying, but it doesn’t matter. His body language says it all, and it’s like a fucking knife to the chest.
The bacon is forgotten as I watch them. Their familiarity, the easy way they talk and react to each other.
Jealousy bubbles up inside me until I’m barely able to contain it.
My fingers ache to reach for my gun in my waistband, to put an end to the way he’s looking at her as if she’s his everything.
She’s not.
She’s mine.
I don’t realise the growl that rips through the air is mine until they both turn to look at me.
Calli’s expression hardens in anger while Ant just shakes his head as if he’s amused by my reaction.
Leaning in closer, he whispers something in Calli’s ear.
My fists curl as he taunts me and I push forward, closing the space between us all and more than ready to drag him away from my girl should he overstep the mark.
His eyes find mine, mirth dancing within them, which I’m equally as impressed by as I am fucking mortified.
The need to paint this room red with his blood burns through me. He should not be amused by it in any way. Most would be terrified if they had little choice but to look into my eyes while I was feeling quite so unhinged, but it seems that Ant may just have bigger balls than I gave him credit for.
I mean, he has been seeing our princess behind all our backs for months, so clearly, he’s got something about him.
Possibly just stupidity.
I guess only time will tell.
“Don’t you need to fuck off?” I bark.
“Daemon, don’t—” Calli starts, but she’s soon interrupted.
“You fucking know I do,” Ant growls back at me. “Could you give us a minute?”
One of my brows lifts as I remain exactly where I am.
“Whatever you have to say, you can say it in front of me.”
Calli jumps up from her chair, glaring at me. “You’re being a—”
“It’s okay,” Ant says calmly, standing with her. “He’s allowed to freak out and get all possessive when he sees you with me.”
“Damn fucking right I am,” I hiss.
Calli looks between the two of us with a scowl.
“Would you like me to get a tape measure so you can both measure your cocks, or did you just want to piss all over me like the overbearing dickheads you are?”
