I close the gap between us and press my mouth to his for a slow, soft kiss. “We all make dumb choices, Hulk. But now that I’ve heard the truth, I can be here for you so you don’t have to go through this alone.” “I don’t deserve you, Mads. I’ve known that since I met you.” “Is that why you slept with everyone except me?” He moves back, placing his hand over his heart. “Ouch, woman.” “Oh, sorry.” I feign sincerity. “Did the truth of your reputation hurt?” He c***s his head with a grin. “That damn sassy mouth of yours. Always running.” Liam wraps his hand around my neck and pulls us together, but I stop him right before our lips collide. “Wait.” I place my palms against his chest. “Have you slept with Victoria?” His eyes widen as he jerks back. “What?” I narrow my gaze, leaning away.
