Bitch! Never!
“Tara, what are you doing? I told you to leave.”
Jagger must’ve spotted her clothes because he scooped them up out of a chair and tossed them at her. She caught the stuff but didn’t seem to cover herself. At least her legs were closed and I didn’t have to see her stankin’ ass pussy.
“Winston said you needed a surprise.”
“Really?”
Jagger reached into the middle of the bed and grabbed her forearm. He dragged her off the bed and she stumbled to the floor. She looked stunned. She finally climbed to her feet. So the bitch knew how to stand on two feet.
“What the fuck Jagger?” Her nasal voice was hideously annoying.
“Get the fuck out and tell Winston to suck a bloody cock!”
Tara grabbed her shoes and scurried out the bedroom like an albino mouse. Jagger followed her but stopped at the bedroom doorway. He watched out the doorway. I assume to make sure she actually left the suite.
I couldn’t believe this barely legal bastard would do this to me. I’m not an idiot she was way too comfortable in his space.
I rushed into the adjacent bathroom to get the stuff I’d unpacked, makeup and a curling wand. I shoved my makeup in the bag on the counter and grabbed my curling wand. I was getting the hell out of here. Clearly he had women all over the place. He’s a piece of shit liar. I should’ve never trusted him. He’s too young to be faithful.
I stomped back into the bedroom and put my stuff on the desk.
“What are you doing?”
“What does it look like?” I shot him the look of murder. “I cannot do this anymore.”
“No, no, no.”
“I’m not stupid. She was already here.” I unzipped my suitcase and stuffed my curling wand and makeup inside. I zipped it shut.
“What are you talking about?”
“She was here with you before I arrived.”
“What the fuck are you talking about?” Jagger repeating the question seemed like stalling to find a lie to me.
“You had her in your hotel room first and you only told her to leave because I was flying in. She didn’t leave. She hung around.”
“No, that’s not true.”
“You said, I told you to leave. If she wasn’t here, to begin with, you wouldn’t have told her to leave in the past tense.”
“You are really confusing me.”
“I’m not confused. I’m going home. I’m done with this, whatever the fuck this is.”
“Fuck no! Kat, I’m not letting you leave this hotel room.”
“No, I’m leaving and you can’t stop me.”
I pulled the handle up on my rolling luggage. I grabbed my handbag out of the chair and slung it over my shoulder. I snatched the handle of my suitcase and I started rolling to the open bedroom door.
Jagger’s long legs were at the doorway blocking me with only three huge steps. I don’t know why I thought he would step aside. He didn’t and I went crashing into him. He didn’t even budge.
I looked up into Jagger’s dark eyes.
“Move!”
“Go, sit, the fuck, down.” He forced the words out of gritted teeth.
I thought about saying no but his face didn’t give me permission. He didn’t look mad. He didn’t look sad. His face was so blank it kind of terrified me. There was nothing in his eyes I could read and I didn’t like it.
“Ka-tri-na.” He muttered my name slowly. He said it like it pained him to get the three syllables out. He wiped his face with his hand. “Go sit down.”
I rolled my suitcase over to the bed. I sat on the edge and refused to look at him.
“Jagger, I need to get to the airport.”
“You are staying with me for three days. You don’t need to go to the airport. You want to go to the airport.”
“I want to go home.”
“I’m not letting you go home. You’re trapped, kidnapped, imprisoned and being held against your will.”
“You can’t stop me from going home.”
“No, I can and I will. You didn’t fly across the county to fly right back. I’m going to explain this to you until you get it stuck in your brain.”
“No need. I don’t want to be apart of your little harem.”
“This is bloody bullshit! There is nobody but you. I love only you. Tara Snow is in New York promoting some movie.”
“How the fuck did she get in here?” Staying mad was the only way not to completely feel the hurt.
“She rang Winston yesterday. She couldn’t ring me because she doesn’t have my mobile. Winston, we always share spare keys. This little prank he pulled, I didn’t find it to be funny. Believe me, as soon as I see that wanker I’ll give him some fives.”
“So, it’s Winston’s fault.”
“Definitely, Glynn gave me a new number when I was in Galena. You’re the only woman with this number. You and my aunt Linda.”
“This is a bullshit story. She called Winston.”
“Yes, Tara asked him if she could join us for dinner last night and get tickets for a show. I haven’t seen her in ten months, maybe more. We all went to dinner last night. Glynn was there with us. We eat, we laughed. I spent most of my time texting you during dinner. At the end of the night, she hit on me. I told her no. She wanted to come back to the hotel to party. She had blow. I said no. I’m sober. She instead coerced Archie into letting her come to his room. I don’t know what happened after that. Next time I laid eyes on her she was naked, completely sprawled on my bed.”
“She called Winston but slept with Archie.”
“Yes, I didn’t see it of course but I’m sure she fucked Archie and didn’t fuck Winston.”
“Makes no sense.”
“Makes perfect sense. We have to bloody trust each other. Now I’m worried. You freaked out like a guilty person. Now I’m worried about what you’re
