KARA CAME OVER AN HOUR later, and we plotted out a plan for the evening. One that would be challenging but doable. “I wish we could make Chase pay, too,” she said, lying back on my grandmother’s sofa. “He’s getting off too easily.” Just hearing his name made my heart ache. It was hard to believe I’d fallen for him so hard and so quickly. “I know. It makes me sick,” I murmured, trying not to think about last night. My only consolation was that we hadn’t gone all the way. If I’d have given him my V-card, I’d have really been devastated. “Chase had better hope he doesn’t run into me anytime soon. I feel like ripping him a new asshole.” I chuckled and then asked what happened between her and Sonny. Kara shrugged. “We kissed a little. I doubt anything else will happen between us, though.”
