“Say please Saint again.”
She hesitates for a second but reluctantly imploring, “Please.”
“The rest Lexy,” he demands.
She hesitates again but only for a split second before locking eyes with him.
“Please Saint.”
“Caleb, let her go.” Saint orders, his eyes never leaving Lexy’s. “For now,” he adds.
There’s got to be more than what she’s telling me because the combination of both heat and hatred that’s rolling off them is something I’ve never seen.
Caleb releases me and we quickly make our way out of the pool. Thankfully, they don’t follow.
“You didn’t say you already met them” she says handing me a giant towel that could fit two people in it.
“I didn’t know I had.”

Weplopdownonher bed after we both get dressed.
“The day after I arrived here my mom took Millie and me to the beach and a ball hit her in her arm. She was so upset. So when Caleb and Saint demanded their ball back without apologising, well I lost it and kicked it into the sea.”
“I don’t blame you. If it was my little sister I would have done the same. Anyone would have. I can’t believe they didn’t even have the decency to say sorry to her though. That’s a whole new low even for them.”
“Now that I’ve met them it doesn’t surprise me. And as much as I loved the look on Saints face, I wish I hadn’t done it. I should have just given it back.”
Lexy fists ball tight. “He just…he just makes me so angry that I want to punch him in his stupid face,” she grumbles angrily.
“Don’t hate me for what I’m about to say, but this has been bugging me so I’m just going to come out with it. But what was that between you and Saint?”
“Hum? I don’t know what you mean. What about me and Saint?” she mutters as if she doesn’t know exactly what I’m getting at.
“The way he looks at you. The way you look at him. If sexual tension was flammable you’d both be up in flames. It’s pretty obvious that you both like each other.”
“What about you and Caleb?” she retorts throwing my words back at me.
“Whatever do you mean?” I feign innocently.
“I saw how he was with you in the pool. I’ll bet Colton was right and that it wasn’t just the water making you all wet,” she says wiggling her eyebrows up and down.
“Lexy,” I laugh lifting her soft pillow and playfully hit her in the arm with it.
“Bitch please, don’t Lexy me. Any girl with eyes can see that man is as hot as sin. And those abs…it’s like they were sculpted from Hades himself.”
“He is gorgeous there’s no denying it but he’s a walking red flag. Not boyfriend material. Anyway, we were talking about you not me. Stop redirecting and come out with it.”
Her cheeks flush but she doesn’t look me in the eye. She pretends to read from an old homework sheet instead of answering me.
“Lexy…spill.”
“Hum? Spill what?” she asks sheepishly.
“C’mon Lex, I may be new here and all but I’m not blind. I know you said you hated him but has something else happened with you and the evil stepbrother?”
