Thoughts of what he could be doing to her right this second have me heaving into the bowl once more.

James said to trust him, that he knows what he's doing. But how am I meant to do that when I know what Warren is capable of?

I remember her cuts and bruises all too well from when Jay dropped her off here on New Year’s. Warren and I might have been friends for years, but even back then, I knew there was something odd about him. He was too inquisitive, too perceptive. Sometimes more than Cole. I figured it was just who he was. He never really gave me a reason to question his weirdness. Now though? Now I want to kill the motherfucker for ever breathing the same air as my girl, let alone laying a finger on her.

"Whoa..." Cole says, appearing from his room with Hadley hot on his heel. "How's the vodka the second time around, bro?"

"Fuck you," I groan, dropping my forehead to the seat.

"We'll get her back, man. James knows what he's doing."

I push to my feet, not sparing a thought for the fact that I'm butt fucking naked. My hands slam down on Cole's chest. "What the fuck?" I bark. "Suddenly you fucking trust him now?"

"Yes," he states, his eyes drilling into mine. I'm vaguely aware of Hadley slipping into the room and circling around me, but I pay her no mind.

"And you'd be happy to wait on him making a move if some cunt had Hadley? Some cunt who'd already raped her, multiple times, and almost fucking killed her?"

Cole pales before me. He doesn't need to say the words for me to know what he's thinking. I can read it in his eyes.

"I think you know what I would do. But this is bigger than just Kenny."

"Yeah, it's about fucking you... again," I seethe.

"The fuck? You think I wanted any of this?"

"You fucking killed Charlie and didn't tell us. You let us think..." I shake my head. I don't really know what I thought. I guess I stupidly believed that he'd taken his own life or whatever the police report said. I don't know why I didn't even consider looking closer at my twin. "You fucking killed him for touching Remi, yet you're happy to let Warren near Kenny. You're a fucking hypocrite."

"You think I'm happy about this? You think I don't want to go there and get her back for you? Fuck, bro." His hands lift to his hair and he tugs as if he's in pain.

"Con, please put this on," Hadley says, shoving a towel in front of me.

I take it from her and wrap it around my waist, not that I really give a shit right now. She can fucking stare all she likes.

"Fuck this." My shoulder slams into Cole's as I storm past him and back to my room.

"Conner?" Hadley's soft voice makes me pause for the briefest second.

No, fuck her too. There's no way she was in the dark about this shit.

"Just leave him, Dove."

"But..."

I slam my bedroom door, effectively cutting off whatever else they had to say.

"Ow, fuck," I mutter, my toe connecting with something sticking out from under my bed, reaching down, I pull the half-full bottle out and twist the top.

Perfect fucking timing.

Ripping the towel from my waist, I throw it across the room and freshen up my mouth with my new friend.

I have no idea how long I lie there, but the bottle is almost empty when my cell rings again, reminding me of what woke me up in the first place.

As I snatch it up, my heart jumps into my throat. It could be her. I tried her cell over and over yesterday, but as I expected all I got was an automated woman telling me the line was disconnected. Motherfucker couldn't even leave me with the lifeline of her voice on her voicemail message.

Disappointment soon washes through me when I see Levi’s name lighting up my screen.

"What?" I bark, pressing it against my ear.
