  37. Excerpt The Tangle of Awful

“I’m going to find out which one,” Levi says, eyes narrowing. “Either way, you’re fucked when Dad finds out.”

“There’s nothing to find out.”

“I’m not an idiot, Willa. I know they invited you to their party.”

“I’m not going.”

“I’ll believe that when I see it.”

Lifting my chin, I meet his stare. “I’m not. I have a friend staying over.”

His brow lifts. “You don’t have friends, aside from the ones you’re fucking.”

“Gemma.” I blurt it out before I can stop myself. “Gemma is staying over.”

Crap. So much for keeping it a secret.

He gapes at me, and for a moment, I’m awarded a high for catching him off guard. It only lasts a second before his lips curl into a sinister smile. “Dad is going to flip his shit.”

“What? Why?”

“You really are clueless,” he says in a mocking tone. “She’s still a Park. I wouldn’t let Dad know which family she comes from if I were you. You’re already on his shit list.”

“What’s up with this lawsuit anyway?”

“Dad’s representing someone suing Theo Park. Something to do with Park Mountain Lodge. I don’t know the details, but he’s going to be pissed if you bring one of them into this house. It could jeopardize his case. Conflict of interest and all that.”

“Might as well tattle on me now,” I spit out.

“Tattle?” He laughs. “Nah, I like having this information to hold against you. Who knows what I could make you do in exchange for my silence?”

“Are you done being an asshole? I’d like to shower. Again. Because you disgust me.”

He steps back but doesn’t release my jaw. Almost like a lover would do, he caresses my bottom lip with his thumb. I’m inclined to bite it, but I’m not looking to get rabies since he’s a vile dog.

“I have my eye on you, little sis. Always.”

“I’m not your sister and go fuck yourself.”

His grin is wolfish. “I will go fuck myself. Maybe I’ll go watch one of the videos where I had my fingers in you as you slept. That never ceases to get me hard.”

I think he’s bluffing, but I still shudder in horror. “Get the hell away from me.”

Finally, he leaves, taking his cloying cloud of smugness with him. I slam the bathroom door shut behind him and lock it. Falling to my ass, I hug my knees to my chest and let loose a sob.

You’re going to be okay, Willa.

You’re not alone this time.

Images of Callum flitter through my mind, giving me the safe place I need until I can gather my strength to stand again.

One day, I can leave.

It won’t be soon enough.

Me: Black.

Callum: Your favorite color is Black?
