#Chapter 15 – Fair Play
Abby

“Leah, I really need to go.”

She grins. “Oh my Go d, they’re going to fight over you, aren’t they?”

I shake my head. “You’re talking nonsense.” The more time I spend speaking to her about this, the

more likely it is that Karl does something stup id and aggressive. “I need to go.”

I already know that Adam and Karl won’t get along. Not just because they both want to be with me, but

because they’re too different. Karl is aggressive and passionate. He’s unpredictable and exciting and

used to getting what he wants. Adam, on the other hand, is safe and reliable. He comes from a

completely different background.

here he is, trying to use his position as Alpha to intimidate Adam.

G od, I’m going to kill him.

Karl pounds on the apartment door, and a moment later, it swings open. Adam stands in the doorway,

and Karl rises to his full height, forcing Adam to look up at him.

“Excuse me.” He pushes his way inside, and Adam closes the door behind him. He stalks further into
