Fuck. Him.
Turning, I stalked back into the house.
“Snook, wait. Come on,” Link called.
I heard footsteps but ignored everything and everyone as I tried to cool the burn in my chest.
“Shit,” he bit out.
I’d rushed out of the house like some lovesick fool worried about someone they cared for.
No, I’d acted like I was in a tizzy for someone I was trying not to care for, and all he did was play a trick on me.
“Ryo, wait,” Link called when I was halfway up the stairs.
I didn’t wait. I just kept on going. It was lucky I didn’t have a weapon on me, or I really did think I would have shot him myself.
I still could.
He deserved it.
I headed for my bedroom where I had many weapons to pick from.
“Hey, Ryo, what’s going on?” Ruin asked when he stepped out of one of the gyms.
“Murder,” I replied and kept walking.
“Do I need to worry?”
“No.” Besides, it wasn’t Wolf I was murdering.
“Okay,” he called. Then I heard him chuckle. “What did you do?”
“Fucked up,” Link said.
“Man, he’s lookin’ to kill you.”
“At least I’d die by my man’s hands,” Link yelled.
The damn idiot.
I wasn’t his man.
“I am not your man,” I shouted.
Ruin’s chuckle sounded, but it faded when I turned another corner.
“Ryo, baby, I’m sorry,” Link called.
I shoved my door open and moved into my room, slamming it after me. I went to my wall and grabbed one of my blades, turning to face the door when it was pushed open.
Link blinked at me. “Baby?”
“You should pay for what you did.”
He nodded straight way. “I know.”
He didn’t get it.
