“No. It’s all for you. I’m late for work anyhow, so I better get moving.”
“Oh well, more for me.” She bites into a waffle while I kiss her cheek quickly.
“Don’t ruin your appetite. We’re going out to dinner to celebrate.”
“Celebrate what?” she asks around a mouthful of food.
“I’ve been nominated for the Gerald Harriet’s Award.”
She pulls back, confused. “What? I don’t understand.”
I look up at the clock, time slowly ticking away. “I’ll explain everything tonight. But let’s just say I have a goat to thank.”
She pulls a grossed-out face while I bend down to kiss her syrupy lips. Just as she slips in her tongue, I pull away. “Save your kisses for tonight.”
Before she can tempt me further, I kiss her cheek once more before heading down the hallway to my room. Shutting the door behind me, I listen to ensure Madison isn’t following. When the coast is clear, I reach for my cell and dial.
“Good morning, Dr. Mathews.”
“Good morning, Ms. Vale. Can you please reschedule my morning appointments?”
“Of course. Is everything okay?”
Looking into the mirror, I reply, “Yes, everything is fine. I have a rodent problem I need to deal with.”
“Oh, dear.”
“It’s okay. I’ve got it under control. Once I’m finished, they’ll all be gone.”
Deep down, I always knew it was Juliet who saw what happened to Madison. But now that my suspicions have been confirmed, I don’t feel relieved—I feel fucking worse.
When I made the decision to venturedown this path, it was about protection. But now, it’s about revenge. This isn’t about right or wrong anymore—my scruples are long gone. They vanished the moment Madison told me the ugly truth.
I’m going to take great pleasure in seeing Juliet burn for what she did to Maddy, and I won’t stop until there’s nothing left. That’s the reason I’m knocking on Juliet’s door at eight thirty on a Monday morning.
The door opens a second later, and I try not to retch when I see Juliet standingbefore me. “Dixon? What are you doing here?” By her hushed tone and the slice of doorway she’s peering through, I dare say she’s not alone.
This reminds me of the time she turned up at my door unannounced and masturbated on my doorstep while Maddy slept innocently inside. I, unlike her, have the decency to prove my point without having to whip out my dick. “I’m sorry for not calling first. Are you alone?”
“No, Dylan is here. He’s still asleep.”
I can’t believe she’d willingly share her bed with that monster—but who am I kidding? She’s a monster herself.
“Oh, really?” I look over her shoulder, not bothering to mute my voice.
“Yes. What do you want?” She’s nervous, and because she’s not in control of the situation, she wants me gone.
This will only take a moment.
“I want to fuck.”-ing kill you, I silently add.
“Oh?” She licks her lips nervously.
I nod, laying on the charm. “But I’ll leave you be, seeing as you’re currently indisposed.” I turn to leave but grin when she stops me.
“Wait!” She flings open the door. “It’s just…now isn’t a good time. Can you come back later?”
I adjust a cuff link coolly. “No can do. I’m working all day, then have dinner plans. It’s okay. I’m sure Dylan can keep you company.”
