He snorts softly. “I’ve been told it’s very common for stepchildren to hate their stepparents. Don’t worry, my little ice princess, Daddy’s going to keep your secret safe.”

My traitorous bodylikeshim calling himself my daddy. What in the actual hell is wrong with me?

“You’re disgusting,” I hiss over my shoulder, taking the stairs two at a time as I flee from him.

There’s a part of me that knows he might follow. That, too, sends a sick thrill through me. But he doesn’t, and I reach the safety of my room, locking the door behind me.

What in the hell just happened? There’s no way that I was texting with Odin last night! Grabbing my phone from my nightstand, I open Instagram and send Hans a message.

Hey, did you send me the right number last night? I know it’s weird to ask…

Oh, shit. I sent you my brother’s number. Awkward!

Just landed in Australia. Talk later.

Looking back, even the tone of the messages is different. Hans’ messages are brief and not engaging. Odin’s, on the other hand…

I groan. No! This has to be some kind of sick joke. I’m willing to believe anything at this point. Anything but the truth.

My phone dings and I see a text from ‘Hans’.

Hans

I’ll allow you some time to process what happened last night, but this changes nothing in my mind. Sleep well, baby girl.

Cursing under my breath, I change the contact information to Odin’s name. It hits me that Hans didn’t offer to give me his number, either. Shaking my head, I send Odin a message.

Odin

Delete my number, creep.

Dropping my phone on the bed, I pad to my closet. I’m getting the hell out of here tonight because I need that drink more than ever.
