Hazel stared at the door for the next hour. For odd reasons, she felt like Rodrigo could come through the door any moment. Finally feeling a little safe, she pulled the phone from under her sheets. She dialed Ryland and he picked up. "Hey Sunshine," he answered in a tired voice. Hazel felt her tummy do a backflip but she ignored it. "Hey," she said in a dry tone, too exhausted. "How was it?" He asked and Hazel rolled her eyes. Ever since, he found out she had a date with Rodrigo, he had given her several reasons why she couldn't be with Rodrigo. "It was okay," Hazel muttered, hoping he'd get the hint that it wasn't worth talking about. But unfortunately Ryland had the opposite in mind. "What happened? Where did you go? Did he touch you?" He asked, stumbling on his words. "You don't need to know, it's nothing important," Hazel said, frustration creeping in. "It is. Tell me," Ryland said, his wolf taking over. "We had dinner, and no he didn't touch me," Hazel replied carefully

Hazel slowly swallowed, turning to meet Ryland's gaze. He stood tall and handsome in his black armani suit. Hazel released the breath she was holding. "Are you just going to stare at me?" He asked with a blank expression. Hazel's lips stretched into a small smile and she took small steps towards him. He grabbed her by the arm, throwing her into a hug. Hazel let out a gasp in shock. “I missed you," he whispered into her ears, placing a kiss on her head. Hazel's stomach grew warm and she wiggled out of his touch, not wanting to get too comfortable. "Where can we talk," She asked, looking anywhere but him. Ryland looked around and before he could answer, Hazel whispered, "The food court, let's go there. I'm hungry," she said, walking ahead. Ryland stared at her, his lips curving into a grim. Kael purred in excitement. Hazel was finally with them. He moved behind her a few paces between them. They stopped at the food court and Hazel ordered lunch which she sat down to eat. She looked

Rodrigo took his seat and Thorne walked in almost immediately. "What the heck did I do now?" He muttered, locking eyes with Rodrigo. "Unfortunately you did nothing wrong," he responded, interlocking his fingers. "Unfortunately. What do you mean by that?" Thorne shot back, his face twisted in confusion. "I have a job for you," Rodrigo said, ignoring his words. "What is it?""I got the necklace back from her? I need you to put a listening device on it," Rodrigo answered, lifting the necklace up. The diamond shone in the dim light, but Thorne wasn't impressed. “It's very small. How am I supposed to put a device on it? Doesn't she also shower with it?" He asked, already exhausted from just the idea. "I didn't think about all these," Rodrigo said, running a hand through his hair. "I noticed," Thorne answered, his tone dripping with sarcasm. "Drop that tone, and do what I asked of you. I don't care if you have to cut it, change the gem or how expensive such wires may be," he said,

Rodrigo flashed her a charming smile as he gestured for her to take a seat. "You're already eating," Hazel said, studying his movements. "I know. You complained about me not showing up for dinner so I made some changes to my schedule," he said, taking a slice of his steak. Hazel smiled, but it felt empty. She mentally scolded herself for ever saying such. A maid came in with her plate and she said a mini thank you, her eyes fixed on the plate in front of her. No doubt it would taste delicious, but she had no appetite with Rodrigo seated in front of her. "Aren't you going to eat?" He asked, taking a cup of wine. Hazel looked at him then at the food. Slowly she sliced the steak popping it in her mouth. The flavours exploded, but she only felt like throwing up. With Rodrigo still watching her every move, Hazel struggled to swallow. "So what was your day like?" He asked, glancing at his plate. "Nothing, I mostly slept today," Hazel answered in a bored tone. Silently hoping he would

Hazel scrambled to her feet in shock. "Answer the question!" Rodrigo yelled, making her shake in fear. "What do you mean?" She asked, feigning confusion, but Rodrigo saw through it.His nostrils flared like a bull’s and Hazel's heart raced so fast that she wished she could just disappear."I have no idea what you're talking about," Hazel managed to yell, trying to stand her ground. Rodrigo gripped a fistful of her hair and dragged her closer to himself. She let out a scream clawing at his hand, but it was no use. "Why do you have that phone?!" He barked very close to her ear. Hazel squeezed her eyes shut, tears streaming down her face as pain spread like electricity through her skull.It was no surprise that somehow Rodrigo of all people had stumbled on her phone. But how?"You never said I couldn't own a phone," she choked out, a sob escaping with the words. "Yes, but you owned two," he yelled, his grip on her hair getting tighter. "I don't," she struggled to answer. It felt l
