“What the hell happened to you?” Gabe asks looking at the ice pack that was plastered to my face.

his words get to me.

“The cop?” He asks curiously. “Ava’s new man?”

At that I blow. I take the ice pack and throw it against the wall.

“He’s not her fucking man” I snap standing up.

My emotions were raw and close to the surface. I still don’t understand why Ava can’t see that the

I haven’t been able to get anything deeper about him. The reports paint him as an okay guy.

Nothing out of the ordinary, but my gut tell me otherwise. There was just something about him

I take a deep breath, trying to cool down the fire burning inside me.

Gabe stares at me like he can’t believe what I just said. Like I was trying to figure out what the

hell was wrong with me.

“Seriously? That’s what made you get into a fight with him”

“Yes!”

He sighs before sitting down. “In case you haven’t noticed, she’s no longer your wife and given that

he is dating her, he has every reason to ask you to back off. Isn’t that the same thing you asked of

Ava when you started dating Emma?”
