Sean didn't look remorseful. In fact, as I stood there panting, my cheeks flushed bright red with fury, a slow, dangerously smug smirk began to pull at his lips. He took a slow step toward me, towering over me in the narrow hallway of the trailer."Oh, so you were watching," he murmured, his deep voice sliding into that smooth, gravelly register that made my stomach do a violent flip. "I thought you were far too busy enjoying your coffee to notice my performance, Mrs. McGregor.""This is not about my coffee, you arrogant wanker!" I hissed, my voice cracking slightly as I poked him hard in his chest, right where Victoria's fingers had been lingering. "You were out there practically letting the entire female population of California drape themselves over you! You have a ring on your finger!""It's a contract, Lyka. Isn't that what you told me?" Sean challenged, taking another step, backing me up until my spine hit the cool wood of the closed door. Damn it! This idiot! Way to hurt a gi

The sound wasn't part of the pyrotechnics. It was a sickening, sharp snap of metal giving way.One of the secondary support beams on the far platform, weakened by the heat of the rigged explosions, suddenly groaned and buckled under Sean’s weight.
