I can't believe I f****d up like that. Maddox is aware I am furious at him, I shoved him out as punishment. He would have hurt her, not intentionally, but I know with him like that, he would have hurt her or scared her, making her hate me.
I rinse the blood off, Mateo got me good, I'll give him that. If Mateo hadn’t gotten her out, Maddox would have marked and mated her on the spot. Somehow I don't think that is how she would want to lose her virginity or remember losing it.
Getting out, I wrap the towel around my waist, relief floods me when I find her back in our room. She didn't run; I half expected her to go hide in her old room.
"You came back," I greet.
"Of course, I did, can't scare me off that easily. Clearly, you forget who my mother is. Nothing is scarier than her."
