CHAPTER 2: Harker –––––––– Harker was furious when he arrived at La Petite Mort Club, but when he walked inside and saw Ethan talking to Alison, he lost it. Everything disappeared except the two of them, chatting so cozily together...without him. Rage surged through him for the first time in years. In college after Merri had chosen Tobias, he’d mastered the art of turning his anger into ruthlessness, but once again it filled him, blocking out everything else. She was his and Ethan had no right to be anywhere near her. People took one look at him and stepped aside. It was like the parting of the Red Sea as he made his way across the bar. Ethan walked away from Alison, but Harker’s focus stayed on her. She glanced at him and the panic in her eyes before she scurried away fed his fury.
