Axel is gonna tell Harlow anyways, so it’s not something I can avoid. I may as well tell her before she hears about it in a blow up fight.

“I... I kissed Axel.” I almost sob.

“Oh...” she says, a smile playing on her lips.Is she broken?

“Oh? That's all you have to say? I just admitted I made Axel cheat on Harlow.”

She gives me a small giggle that has me even more confused. “I don’t think Harlow will see it that way.”

“What? How can she not!”

“Because, if she hasn’t done something by now with the knowledge that you and Axel have feelings for each other, I don’t think she will. A kiss won't change that.”

“What...” I get deathly pale.

“Sam, honey. It’s kind of obvious. Maybe not to the guys, but to Harlow and I? Yeah, we kind of see a lot of what others don’t. Comes with years of trauma and the need to protect ourselves. We always pay close attention to our surroundings. And the way you two look at each other when you think no one else is around makes it known how you feel.”

“Oh, God,” I groan, dread filling me as I roll onto my back and cover my face with my hands. “Of course she's picked up on it. How can she not! She’s a fucking god.”

“Well, I’ve never been called that before,” Harlow’s voice has my stomach threatening to fall out my ass... you know, if I was standing. My belly turns, and I feel like I’m going to be sick.

Peeling my hands off my face, I turn in horror to find her standing in the room, Axel right behind her. A smile plays on his lips. My eyes flick between them. They don’t look mad. Why don’t they look mad? Did they hear everything?

“I mean, I could see it,” Axel says, wrapping his arms around her from behind. “You do have the power to end someone's life.” He kisses her cheek and she giggles.

“I think if I had the power of a god, we’d all be in danger,” she says with a dangerous smile.

“Yeah, you have a point. Let’s just keep you a queen, you have enough power as it is,” Axel chuckles.

“But I want more,” Harlow says, then laughs like an evil villain making Axel snort and Evie giggle.

“So, how was your night?” Evie asks Harlow, getting off the bed and walking over to her.

“Very eventful. Full of fun songs and orgasms.” Harlow wiggles her eyebrows.

“Don’t forget blood.” Axel points out.

“Right! Can’t forget about that.” Harlow nods.

“What happened?” Evie asks as Harlow pulls her under her arms.

“Some fucker thought he could lay his hand on one of my girls. So, I shot him in the leg as a warning.” Harlow shugs.

“And then knocked him the fuck out. It was hot as hell and my cock was harder than stone.” Axel grins.

“Didn’t need that info, big guy. But when are any of your dicksnothard when it comes to her?” Evie asks.

“Good point.” Axel nods.

What the hell is going on right now?I’m almost positive she heard me admit to kissing her man as well as having feelings for him. And she’s done...nothing.

“I think it had more to do with the lap dance you had before,” Harlow says, looking over her shoulder at him. He looks at her with such intense, heated eyes it makes my belly warm. I have it bad for these two.Why does life hate me?

“We need to talk to Sam. But if you’re not too tired after, I’d love to help you relax,” Harlow tells Evie, her eyes filled with lust. “I’ll shower first, of course.” She grins.

“I’ll be waiting for you,” Evie breathes, leaning in to give her a kiss.

She wants to talk to me? Damn it, this is it. This is when she tells the broken boy nicely that he has to leave and that he’s not welcome anymore. It’s more than I can ask for though. She kills people for what I did to her man. At least I’ll still have my life.
