Chapter 283: Macaih Valentine, Part 1

The house was silent as we waited for Macaih to arrive. The tension, though, was choking me. Wyatt and Whitney kept giving each other looks, like they were communicating with one other via their thoughts. They probably were.

Jax and Trent kept their distance from each another, but their gazes were deadly. I half expected them to start circling like two predators ready to attack. They might have, too, if it weren't for Sean. He stood in the middle of the living room, arms crossed, watching everyone.

I sat on the couch and fidgeted with my promise ring, twisting it around my finger. My stomach was one large knot. I hated that I had to be the one to tell everyone about Macaih. They liked and respected him, and I'd made them question that.

Would Macaih's involvement with Ivy affect the deal Trent and I were going to make with her? I hoped not, but knowing my luck, everything was seconds away from crashing down around me. Again.
