Already feeling the migraine I knew Evie would evoke.
—Evie—
I opened the door.
“Oh, no!” I went to shut it, but I wasn’t fast enough, and he was able to barge into my apartment. Annoyed and confused, I questioned, “What are you doing here?”
“I’m here to pick you up.”
“Excuse me, what?”
“You heard me, Evie.”
“I may have heard you, Caleb, but I have no idea what you’re picking me up for.”
“You’re flying to Miami with me.”
“No, I’m not.”
“Darlin’—”
“How many times have I told you to stop calling me that?”
“As many times as I’ve told you that you’re a pain in my ass.”
“Then why are you here?”
“Because I don’t have a choice. Your brot—”
“Oh. My. God. I’m going to kill Jax. I’ve told him a hundred times now I don’t need you—”
“You’re coming to Miami with me whether you want to or not, so grab your shit, and let’s go. We have a flight to catch and unlike you, I don’t like wasting people’s time.”
She glared at me. “You can’t just boss me around.”
“Watch me.” With that, he grabbed my wrist and tugged me toward him.
“Caleb, don’t you dar—”
He leaned over and abruptly picked me up, completely unfazed by my weak attempt to fight him off.
“Stop manhandling me!”
He threw me over his shoulder like I weighed nothing.
“Stop pretending like you don’t want me to.”
He grabbed my bag, and we were out my door which now automatically locked on its own. One night out of nowhere, Caleb showed up at my apartment with a keyless lock.
“You’ve got to be kidding me?” I contended.
“You won’t lock your doors. Now you don’t have to. It’ll lock for you.”
“I’m going to kill my brother.”
“This wasn’t from your brother.”
I jerked back, shocked. “Wait, what?”
