Chapter 58

At the end of the bar Jack nursed a tumbler of whiskey, watching them as they sat there oblivious to his presence. He nudged his half empty whiskey bottle aside to make room for his elbows, and cradled his face in his hands, watching his love carry on without him, enjoying life.

He’d followed Amy all day. He couldn’t leave. Nor could he give her up. Hearing her talk about Smythson with giddiness and enchantment made his skin crawl. But she had done nothing wrong. She couldn’t remember anything they’d done together or anything about her time in the sky on Cloud 9. How could she be unfaithful when he didn’t exist?

Jack saw a dark figure standing at the other end of the long bar. He had unwanted company. Gregori beamed back at him.

“Fuck.” Jack hissed under his breath.

The evil creature was spying on Amy and her friend. How dare he, the bastard? Jack would like nothing more than to dispose of the rancid knob-end once and for all.
