"Taryn..."

Brooke-it was all Brooke. What would have happened had I found out a bit earlier? Will Enoch and I be able to reconcile? What would have happened?

"Taryn!" I immediately snap out of it, turning to the voice beside me. It's Liam. Right, we were in the drawing room.

"I said your name twice," Liam mutters, his voice louder than usual. "Are you deaf or just ignoring me?" he mutters, a bit annoyed.

Shaking my head, I blink. No, I snap back to reality. My background registers and the white walls of the drawing room come into focus again, it's as though my brain just did a hard reboot.

Fuck.

Focus, Taryn.

I swallow the lump in my throat but my mouth is dry. My fingers are curled around the edge of the table, and I'm not sure how long I've been sitting here frozen, staring at the blurry photo on Liam handed me like it's a prophecy or a death sentence. Maybe it is, considering how I'm reacting.

Brooke.

It was her. That fucking snake.

She used Zoe to bait me. Used Lady Celeste to get close to Enoch. And then used me-my words, my trust, my laptop-to ruin everything.

Liam cleared his throat and I turn to him, raising my brows. "So, what did you find out? Do you recognize the person on the image?" He nods onto the crumpled paper in my hand.

"Nothing," I mumble, voice hoarse. "It's nothing."

Liam raises a brow before turning away in disbelief. "Bullshit."

I flash him a tight-lipped smile, the kind that feels more like I'm baring teeth than being polite. "Stop raising your voice. I was just thinking." I snap, annoyed. It doesn't help that this shit is getting to my nerves. I have to think of a way to confront

that bitch later.

"You looked like you were about to punch someone in the throat." Liam mutters under his breath as he begins to organize the pictures in front of us. This is what I absolite;y don't like about him. He's uptight as fuck.

"Oh, I am. Just not you. Yet." I mutter, rolling my eyes.

Before he can respond, a low growl rips through the air. A shiver immediately runs down my spine and I straighten up in my seat as we both turn to where it was coming from.

No need to guess who though.

I don't even have time to roll my eyes before the chair besides Liam is kicked out

of place and I sweat I think the legs broke off or something-which, knowing him, is a real possibility.

Ugh, I really don't have time for this.

"Back the fuck off," Enoch snarls, eyes flashing green. He's stalking around the table like he owns the building. Which, okay, he might, but still.
