Page 29 of Reckless (Enemies to Lovers 2)
When Rhett reaches for me, I shake my head again, stepping out of his reach.
I canât look at him any longer and go to my room. I struggle to hold it together until I close the door behind me.
I donât know who hurt me more. Rhett or Logan?
Seeing all those names on Loganâs list makes me wonder if what we have is even real. He wonât even kiss me, but he gave himself so easily to six other women.
Where all his words just empty promises so he could add me to his list?
Chapter 10
Logan
Rhett phoned, sounding out of his mind with worry. All I know is that itâs got something to do with Mia.
Did Rhett find out about Mia and me? Even if he did, Iâll face whateverâs coming. Not being able to wait for the elevator, I take the stairs two at a time up to his apartment. When I walk inside, Iâm surprised to see Carter there.
âIs Mia okay?â I ask, not caring about anything else.
Rhett turns away from the window, and when I see that heâs been crying, my heart almost stops.
âWhat happened? Whereâs Mia?â
Itâs amazing how many bad scenarios can flash through your head in less than ten seconds. Anything from a car accident to Mia being missing. Every single scenario leaves my gut more twisted than the one before.
âSheâs in her room,â he says, his voice raw. Iâve never seen Rhett so broken before, but Iâm filled with relief, knowing that sheâs here. âJosie is on the screw crew list.â
; I frown, not understanding what that has to do with anything.
âWe all fucked her,â Carter spits it out as if itâs leaving a bad taste in his mouth just saying the words.
âWhat?â
âYou all had sex with Josie,â Mia says softly from where sheâs standing outside the room. Her eyes are red and sheâs clutching a tissue in a death grip. I canât remember a time where she looked even half upset as she does right now.
I want to hold her and promise that everything will be okay, but before I can take a step towards her Jaxson and Marcus come in, looking worried.
âHey, whatâs up?â Marcus asks.
Mia looks at Marcus and Jaxson, then Carter. âBecause you all used her she thought she could get back at you all by using me.â
I donât like the tone of Miaâs voice and Iâm still not following what sheâs saying. Itâs scaring the shit out of me, seeing her so upset.
I start towards her, needing to hold her, but she holds up her hand while taking deep breaths. It looks like sheâs going to be sick.
âDonât. Just donât, Logan.â Her voice is hauntingly raw, and itâs killing me to see her like this. âJosie stole my phone so she could cut me off from everyone I loved. She pretended to be my friend, most probably so she could have a front row seat to my pain.â
She shakes her head and then she looks at Rhett. Her eyes look like crushed leaves as they drown in pain.
âYou all had sex with her,â she whispers, her voice cracking over the words, like a dying fire thatâs being drowned out by a storm.
Then she looks at me, and it feels as if someone is gutting me. âYou had sex with Josie.â This time her voice is clear and strong, and somehow that makes it hurt more.
âI have no words to describe how used I feel. How disappointed I am.â She walks to Marcus and only then does she start to cry. âYou started the list, Marcus. Because of you turning women into nothing but a list of names that were used, Josie paid a guy to sleep with me. That guy took my virginity. It might not mean anything to you, but to me â¦â Her voice disappears on a sob before she forces the rest out. âI feel dirty and used. I hope it was worth it.â
Marcus looks like heâs going to puke. I think we all feel that way.
