Gabriel Brennan and some beauty.

He's wearing a sharp, tailored suit, his dark hair cut short with a mop of curls on top, exuding confidence with every step.

attention.

She's stunning, a bombshell in every sense of the word Slim, with short, sleek hair and a dress that hugs her curves like a second skin.

The way she carries herself, the way everyone in the room is watching her... there's something magnetic about her. Something almost familiar.

Jayden's hand tightens on my arm, his face hardening. "Gabriel's thirty."

"And we don't know a damn thing about him," I add, feeling my protective instincts flare. "This can't be happening."

Lisa sighs. "I hate to say it, but it is happening. She's obviously all in. Lucky bitch."
