“Look,鈥� I began, 鈥淚 get it. You don鈥檛 like me, but鈥斺€�
鈥淚 don鈥檛 like you?鈥�
He let out a low, flat laugh. One fell into the next, and it was awful鈥攏ot at all him. He was half
choking on them as he turned around, shaking his head. It almost sounded like a sob, the way his
breath burst out of him.
鈥淚 don鈥檛 like you,鈥� he repeated, his face bleak. 鈥淚 don鈥檛 like you?鈥�
鈥淟iam鈥斺€� I started, alarmed.
鈥淚 can鈥檛鈥擨 can鈥檛 think about anything or anyone else,鈥� he whispered. A hand drifted up, dragging
back through his hair. 鈥淚 can鈥檛 think straight when you鈥檙e around. I can鈥檛 sleep. It feels like I can鈥檛
breathe鈥擨 just鈥斺€�
鈥淟iam, please,鈥� I begged. 鈥淵ou鈥檙e tired. You鈥檙e barely over being sick. Let鈥檚 just鈥� Can we just
go back to the others?鈥�
鈥淚 love you.鈥� He turned toward me, that agonized expression still on his face. 鈥淚 love you every
second of every day, and I don鈥檛 understand why, or how to make it stop鈥斺€�
He looked wild with pain; it pinned me in place, even before what he had said registered in my
mind.
鈥淚 know it鈥檚 wrong; I know it down to my damn bones. And I feel like I鈥檓 sick. I鈥檓 trying to be a
good person, but I can鈥檛. I can鈥檛 do it anymore.”

“Stay out of this, Green!鈥� He was still wholly focused on Chubs. 鈥淲hat else did you tell her?
What else did she get out of you?鈥�
I jerked back, one single word throwing me off balance.
鈥淲hat did you just call her?鈥� Chubs interrupted. Of course he had caught it, too.
鈥淲hat? I鈥檓 not allowed to use her name now?鈥� he demanded. The look on his face was ripe
with derision. 鈥淲hat do you want me to call you? What clever codename did the League think up for
you? Pumpkin? Tiger? Tangerine?鈥�
鈥淵ou called me Green,鈥� I said.
鈥淣o I didn鈥檛,鈥� he said. 鈥淲hy the hell would I call you that? I know what you are.鈥�
鈥淵ou did,鈥� Chubs insisted. 鈥淵ou called her Green. You really don鈥檛 remember?”

“Why do you assume I forced him to do anything, darlin鈥�?鈥�
鈥淒on鈥檛,鈥� I gritted out, 鈥渃all me that.鈥�
Cole鈥檚 light brows rose. 鈥淚 guess that answers my question about why you lied to Alban. Care to
explain how you even know my brother?”

“His warm hand gripped mine and squeezed. "I'm not goin' anywhere, darlin'.”
