So you kind of never answered my question? The “are you flirting with me?” one, I mean.
It’s okay if you are. I respect all sexual orientations.
Not that I’m saying you have a different one.
Unless you do?
No pressure, just an innocent question.
Maybe not so innocent, but you get what I mean.
I see that you’re reading my texts, you know. Care to spare me some words?
Not necessary, though. I will continue to fill up your inbox until you do.
By the way, heard you broke up with your girlfriend. Oh no, am I the reason?
That was a rhetorical question. I know I am. Should’ve broken up with her when I asked nicely. Honestly, you should thank me for outing her. The girl is as much of a pro as I am at sleeping around.
She kind of implied you don’t satisfy her. Bet she didn’t satisfy you, either, right?
Too soon? Anyway, I’m still asking nicely,so come to the island, or I’ll have to do something about it.
Don’t call my bluff. You know I’m unhinged.
With that text—sent late last night—I attached a video of me fighting Nikolai in the underground ring. Neither of us won, but we were both bloodied shitless.
I actually sent Vaughn a few of those videos of me fighting Nikolai, Jeremy, and Killian, just so he’d see me pummeling his dear friends that he refused to join.
You know, grand plan things.
And because he keeps ignoring me, I type again.
Just held a funeral for Zver. She died too young because of you. Shouldn’t you offer your condolences?
Fine, I know you won’t. Worth a try.
Anyway, I’m throwing a party tomorrow. You should come. Last warning.
If you don’t, I’ll invite Nikolai over and have a fuck fest, then send you footage.
Just kidding.
While Nikolai is bi, like me, he’snotmy type. I prefer feminine boys, and he’s so far outside of that scope, it’s a complete turn-off. Besides, he only fucks, and Idon’tget fucked. Period.
He’s also too unhinged, too chaotic, and has far from the princeling, well-put-together looks of a certain pain in my neck.
A text appears on the screen, and I sit up taller, my breath stuttering.
Fuck me.
Vaughn actuallyreplied.

You’re not Nikolai’s type.
