"What is?"

"How your claws came out when Leti accused us of fucking, but you're supposedly in love with my brother."

I stare out the windshield at the stars like I'm contemplating the sky because he's right. What the hell got into me? It wasn't because of him. It wasn't. It was because they all thought I was a home girl. Not a woman destined to run a cartel empire.

"It wasn't because of my feelings for you. It was because they thought I was somehynashowing up to keep your bed warm."

His eyes land on my lips. "What are your feelings for me?"

"Get your mind out of the gutter, Maxim. I think you're a little too old for me."

"I heard different. I heard you can choose, and last time I checked, you're an adult. And I'm not hitting on you. You're not my type, and besides, if we are going to do business together, I'm not into complicating shit with aveterano’sgranddaughter. I value my balls.

Football season has started, and I look toward the stands again. I see Mia and Xena, but there is no sign of her. She wasn't in the stands at the basketball playoff game, I played like shit, and we lost.

I don't have the balls to ask where she is when I've been complaining about her coming to cheer for me. She switched all the classes she had with me. She hasn't been to any of my races. It's like she doesn't exist.

"Hey,puto?" Ezekiel says, shoving me. "Get your head in the game and stop looking for pussy."

I take a seat on the bench and take off my helmet. "I'm not."

"She's not here," Niko says, picking up a water bottle.

I look over at him and hope he knows more, but that's all he says. I don't want to look like an idiot, so I play dumb. "Who are you talking about?"

Niko chuckles. "You know exactly who I'm talking about. You should be happy. You got what you wanted."

After the game, I walk toward the parking lot to meet up with Evelyn, but my eyes dart around, looking for a black RangeRover out of habit. She was always there, giving me doe eyes with a smile on her face.

"Hey," Evelyn says, snaking her arm around my waist. I inwardly cringe. "Are we hanging out tonight?"

I step out of her embrace and head to my car. "I have homework to catch up on."

She pouts. "How about tomorrow night?''

How about never.

"I can't. I'm swamped with studying. I have three exams, and with football, it will be hard to hang out."

"Oh."

I drive off, leaving her in the parking lot.

I told her there was nothing serious between us. I made the mistake of letting her meet my parents to get to Elena. The way she gave my brother an appreciative glance despite him dressing like he came off the set of the movieVatos Locos, the asshole in me, didn't end it.

My pride wouldn't let it. But it wasn't because Evelyn thought my brother was hot. I would gladly hand her over, and he could fuck her brains out for all I gave a fuck. It was when I saw him talking to Elena.

Jealousy burned in my gut.

All I could think about was hurting her the only way I knew how, by letting her see me with another girl. It was a dick move I regret, but I hated the way I was forced to be with her and the constant pressure.

The fangirling.

I felt guilty that I couldn't look at another girl after our first kiss. I knew I couldn't promise her things when I was becoming self-aware as a man. The remorse I felt when I would look at porn or a pair of nice tits.

Our fathers would skin me alive for hurting their precious Elena or the shame eating me when I looked at her twin brother,knowing I was thinking of ramming my cock in his sister's pussy to see how tight it felt.

I couldn't give in to her. When I fucked a girl for the first time, that I felt like I was cheating on Elena. All bets were off. I was determined to push her away if I could.
