“Seriously?” I ground out. “Why am I an asshole today?”
“Oh, it’s not just today,” she informed me.
“Oh, do tell.”
“You can suck it,” Sierra said. “You’re a cold-hearted dick, and I’m never speaking to you again.”
“Whoa,” I replied. “What the hell, Sierra?”
She flipped me off and turned and stomped out of the kitchen.
I turned to Wyatt and Violet. “What was that all about?”
“I’m going to find Sundance.” Wyatt shrugged out of her jacket. “Excuse me.”
She walked away so I was left with Violet.
“Care to explain?” I asked.
“We went to the diner.”
“Fuck me,” I breathed out.
“Yep.” She grabbed a beer and twisted off the top. “Although, I have a feeling you’ve kind of already done that all by yourself. Because, quite frankly, we’re all on team Rowan. And, for the record, I think you’re a class A idiot, but I’m not gonna get in the middle of you and Rowan.” She nodded toward the door. “You’re gonna need to fix that, though, because Raquel’s my sister and Sierra’s her bestie, so that means she’s my family and you can’t fuck that up.”
I dragged a hand down my beard and nodded.
“Did you hear me about being a class A idiot?”
“Yeah, Let, I fuckin’ heard you.”
“But, like I said, I’m not getting involved.”
“Drop it, Violet,” I warned.
“Certified class fucking A, as in asshole,” she bellowed as I walked out of the kitchen.
“Anyone see which way Sierra went?” I asked the room.
“Out back,” Rocky answered.
I made my way out to where the picnic tables were and found her standing by one of the drums currently being lit by Wrath. She was wearing his leather jacket which was about ten sizes too big for her.
“Sierra,” I called, and she scowled at me over her shoulder.
“I’m not talking to you.”
I made my way to her. “Sweetheart, this isn’t us. We don’t shut each other out.”
“Yeah? What about Rowan? Are you shutting her out?”
“You don’t understand.”
“No, you’re right. I don’t understand. She’s the best thing that has ever happened to you. She’s sweet, and kind, and pretty, and you’ve broken her.” She scowled at me. “Completely shattered her heart. You’re abeast.”
I frowned. “Did she tell you all that?”
“Of course not. But I can tell.” She pulled Wrath’s jacket tighter around her body. “You’ve left her to fend for herself alone in that diner. What if Stanley hired someone else to come after her?”
