“No, but it’s thetruth!” I hiss.

“Why the hell do you even care?!”

“Because you’re mywife!”

“Only when it suits you!” she fires back.

I storm over to her, sneering. “Don’t,” I seethe. “Don’t eventryto play that card. You’re reckless, and we both know it!” I yell loud enough for her to tremble. “You have no fucking clue about the consequences of your choices and actions!”

Her eyes gleam. “You arewayout of fucking line, asshole.”

“Your impetuousness is fuckingdangerous, Tempest!” I fire back. “You have zero impulse control! You justdothings, and you act without once thinking of what might happen!”

She’s so angry she’s shaking, but I can’t stop. I’m not trying to be an asshole. But this woman has wormed her way so fucking deep under my skin and I care so fucking much that it’s impossible to brush this off anymore.

“Are we talking about that psycho bitch at the party pretending to be my friend so she could lead me to Silvio’s little ambush?” she snaps. “Or is it jealousy about Venom the other?—”

“Careful, little hurricane,” I hiss dangerously.

“What I do withmyfree time, asshole, is none of your fucking?—”

“The fuck it’s not!” I roar. “You are my fuckingwife. So tell me one more goddamn time how you slinking off to private rooms at Club Venom isn’t any of my business. I’m all ears.”

She swallows. “We never talked about exclusivity?—”

“We’re talking about itright now,” I snarl, lurching into her and lifting her face to mine, watching the hazel-green fire flicker in her eyes. I slowly shake my head. “I’m through believing in coincidences.”

“Meaning?”

My lips curl. “I want to know how you know about Apex.”

Her brow furrows. “What?”

“The rings, Tempest.”

She pales, and I know I’ve hit a nerve.

“I want answers.Now. You followed that fucker back to the private room for a reason.”

She sneers. “Maybe I just wanted to fuck him?—”

She gasps sharply as I kiss her hard enough to bruise, making her yelp and whimper when I bite down on her plump bottom lip until I taste copper.

“No, you didn’t,” I hiss.

Her eyes narrow. “What makes you so damn sure?—”

“BecauseIfuck you better than anyone else every could,” I snarl. “And Iknowyou know that.”

She sucks on her lip, her chest heaving.

“You went with him because of the rings. You tried to fucking stab me at ourweddingbecause of the rings.”

She whimpers as I twist her face up to mine, looming over her.

“So I’m telling you for the last fucking time. I. Want.Answers.”

At first, I think it’s just something in her eye. But suddenly, she’s crumpling.
