Mark Fuck if she didn’t look beautiful this morning. I know that Annie said that she was fine last night, but I saw the way she pulled away from him in the bright moonlight. Her eyes were wide when she looked at us, and I sucked in my breath as I stared at the guys with a look that could kill. I don’t know what he was trying, but the way that she moved closer to us on her shaking legs told me that whatever it was made her uncomfortable. I glanced across the room today to meet his gaze with a cold one of my own, not giving a f**k if I was sabotaging a friendship of hers. Nobody was going to make her feel that way and think they had anything left with her. Hell, Frank and I would both protect her from him and anyo ne else. We’d become skilled at protecting her against us the last few weeks
