I fall down on the edge of the bed, surrounded by destruction as all my concerns from yesterday come rushing back.
She was so distant, so... not herself.
This was why. She knew she was going to do this.
My fists curl once more.
I'm going to kill that motherfucker. Blood roars in my ears so loud that I don't hear the hotel room door open or people rush inside.
"Sir. Sir. Sir..." It's not until someone waves in front of my face that I realize there are people standing before me.
Two security guards and a sheepish looking hotel worker stare down at me as if I'm about to explode any second.
"We need you to come with us, sir."
The two massive guys take an arm each and I'm practically dragged out of the room and toward the elevator.
"You can let go, you know," I seethe, ripping my arms out of their hold.
They're both silent behind me as we descend through the hotel, heading for wherever the fuck they're taking me.
The elevator doors open and I'm pushed out.
"What the fuck?" I look up the second the voice hits my ears to find Cole and Hadley staring at me with their chins dropped. "What the fuck have you done?" Cole asks, stepping forward and releasing Hadley.
"Let's go," one of the security guards bark. "Officers will be here shortly."
"Officers? Conner?"
"Ju
st leave it," I growl at him, allowing the guards to pull me down the hall.
"Cole, do something," Hadley shrieks before his footsteps follow us.
I fall down into a chair in an office and immediately drop my head into my hands.
"Call off the police. We'll cover the cost of whatever he's done." Cole says more, but I tune him out, preferring to drown in my own misery.
The door eventually closes before I feel Cole’s stare turn on me.
"Talk."
"Fuck you," I bark.
"Nah, you're good. I'm kinda worn out from last night, if I'm honest. Thought you would be too after a night with your girl."
My teeth grind as his attempts to get me talking begin to work.
"Shut up, Cole."
"No can do, motherfucker. I need to know why James is going to have to dig you out of this shit."
"She's gone, all right?" I shout, standing with such force that the chair clatters to the floor behind me. "She's fucking gone."
I look up at Cole as the color drains from his face.
"Gone? Gone where?"
