My entire body is alive and sizzling with nervous energy as we walk through the stadium. I loved the whole night. All of the fighters were so skilled. I figure I picked up a few tricks I can try on Toni at our next training session — not that she wouldn’t already know them all herself. Damn, hadn’t thought of that!
“You enjoy yourself, baby?” Jax asks, pressing a kiss on my forehead as he slings an arm around my shoulder.
“Yes. I loved it. Thank you.”
“You’re welcome.”
“It’s a shame we couldn’t go back there and speak with Toni though,” I say with a sigh.
“She’s busy with press and PR people and she has a few meet the fans things to do,” he says with a shrug.
“I guess,” I say, feeling a little deflated. “Would have been nice to see her is all.”
“You’ll see her, baby,” he laughs softly. “She’s meeting us in a bar a few blocks away when she’s finished up in there.”
“She is?” I stare at him.
“Yep. You think she would come all this way and not say hi to her biggest fan?” he teases me.
“I’m not her biggest fan.”
“No?” he laughs again and the sound rumbles through his chest.
“Maybe one of the biggest, but notthebiggest,” I admit.
“I have to warn you, she can be a bit of an asshole after a fight. Must be all the adrenaline and the adulation going to her head or something.”
“She’s always an asshole,” I remind him.
“True.”

Toni rollsher glass in her hand making the ice clink against the sides. She licks her lips as she signals the waitress for a refill.
“I see you still love your bourbon?” Jax says with a smile as he leans back on the bench, his arm draped around my shoulder.
“Can’t beat it.” She winks at him. “Reminds me of our weekend in Cabo.”
Jax shakes his head and groans.
I look between them both. “Cabo?”
“Cabo, baby,” Toni winks at me.
“You two went to Cabo together?”
“We didn’t go together. We were there at the same time and we…” Jax runs a hand over his jaw.
“You what?”
“We hooked up,” Toni says with a shrug as though she didn’t just drop a grenade into the room.
“Y-you two?” I give my full attention to Jax.
“We didn’t exactly hook up. Not with each other,” he says before shooting Toni a warning glare.
“So, what did you do?” I frown at him. I hate that I feel like the only person at the table who doesn’t know what’s going on here. Jax assured me he and Toni had never had sex together. Did he lie to me?
