Chapter 20 MADDOX
MADDOX
I left Joslyn alone in her room. She was waiting for Ronan to show up.
He should enjoy that while it lasts. His time was almost up.
I reached my door, unlocked it, and stepped inside, shutting it behind me.
I was starting to get annoyed with her feeling like she owed him something because they slept together.
I had slept with plenty of women over my lifetime, and I didn’t owe any of them a fucking thing.
I needed to go to bed. Or take a walk. Something.
Sitting here thinking about him in there with her was pissing me off.
I wanted to bust down the door and beat his ass; if I thought about it too much longer, I might not stop myself.
I went to the bathroom and got into the shower.
I needed to bring it down a notch and get some sleep.
I exited the shower, toweled off, and made my way to the bedroom.
I pulled on a pair of underwear, walked to the kitchen, and got a beer from the fridge.
Sitting on the couch, I grabbed the remote and turned on the television.
Flipping through the channels, I realized there wasn’t shit on.
I switched it off and finished my beer. Just as I was about to lie down, my phone went off.
It was Joslyn. I threw a pair of sweats on and entered the hallway.
