“If we were so amazing then why did you cheat on me, you bastard!”
“I didn’t cheat on you.” When I don’t respond, he says, “You won’t believe me even if I show you proof, will you? Because you want to quit on us. But I’m not giving up on you. Not yet.”
Shaking my head, I tell him, “I should’ve known. You made it clear that you were never even going to try to be faithful to me.”
“You made your mind up before you met me, so no matter what I say right now, you’re not going to listen.”
“I wish you would just leave me alone for good.”
“What if you’re pregnant, Sophie? What then? Will you deny me a chance to know my son or daughter?”
“I’m not.”
“Are you certain?”
“The tests were negative, but no, I can’t be certain yet.”
“Yes or no, Sophie, if you’re pregnant with my kid, would you keep them from me?”
“No, because I wouldn’t keep it.”
“You wouldn’t…wow.” He strides away toward the door then back, swiping his palm down his face. “You hate me so much you wouldn’t have my child?”
“It has nothing to do with you, Lochlan. I never wanted to be a mother! Did you bother asking me that? No. You made the decision to finish inside of me without telling me. So, if you put me in that position, without asking me what I want, then it would be my decision. Not yours or anyone else’s.”
“What do you want me to say? That I regret coming inside of you the first time we fucked? Every time we fucked? Because that would be a lie. I should’ve asked you before the first time, I know that. But for whatever reason, you refused to take the goddamn pill you insisted you wanted me to give you. Would you like to tell me why?”
“Because I thought Lena or Toni bought it and would get fired if you found out.”
“Fine. Keep lying to yourself all you want,” he huffs after my half-ass explanation. “I came to tell you that I know that I’ve fucked up, so let me try to prove to you that it’s not what you think it was today.”
“You can’t.”
“I can prove that I didn’t fuck Shana or anyone else in our bed.”
“Your bed.”
“It’s our bed now,” he says while typing on his phone. “And trust me, if someone did screw in it, I’ll burn the entire room down.”
A moment later, voices fill the air, a woman’s and…not Lochlan’s. They go back and forth but it’s hard to understand much of their conversation until the heavy breathing starts, then the man clearly says, “Come here, you dirty little slut.”
“Believe me now?” Lochlan asks. Thankfully he lowers the volume before he turns the screen around. On it is a video of a man dressed other than his pants down, banging Shana against the door. It looks like Lochlan except…in casual attire, jeans, and a tee. He’s also leaner, with darker hair. It’s his brother Flynn fucking the woman against the door so hard it rattles behind them, the same sound I heard so clearly.
I’ve never been more relieved in all my life.
“Hurry…Hurry…Loch…coming…Yes! Oh god, I’m coming!”
“Huh,” Lochlan mutters, looking at the screen again. “So, she did scream my name. I have no clue why. Maybe she wanted to make Flynn angry by calling him by my name or, more likely, she was rushing him to finish before I caught them fucking in my bedroom. Trust me, that shit will never happen again.”
I feel lighter, but I’m still angry with him when I say, “Fine. Maybe you weren’t with her today, but she told me you were with her the night you didn’t come home, and I thought I was going to die.”
Closing his eyes, Lochlan rubs the bridge of his nose. “Okay, so that much is unfortunately true.”
I scoff and bury my face in my pillow.
“No, Sophie. I was in the room with Shana, yes, but so was Owen. I was watching them, her, give him head while only wearing a tennis skirt and no panties.”
Hearing him talk about that shit, I want to suffocate myself in my pillow. “That doesn’t make any fucking sense! You could’ve at least tried to make up a more believable lie.”
