244-Cold War "I will go call the doctor." Reign watched us uncomfortably stay silent, so she excused herself and rushed out of the room. Now that it was just the two of us, I noticed how silent Maddox was. He was hunching down and resting his arms on his thighs and his face in his hands.

"I thought Zane had told you," I said, feeling awkward that he found out this way.

"No! it is no problem. It is not like I deserve to know it from you," he said, straightening his back and running his hands through his hair, fixing his attire before turning his chair to face me.

“It happened all—of a sudden," I explained, feeling awkward.

“I get it," he nodded. "I hope he is treating you right," Maddox then commented, and I nodded to him.

"He is very nice and respectful to me," I replied to his comment.

“Reign is a very good girl. She is sweet and faithful, and I think she likes you a lot." Before I could go on from there, he silenced me.

“Thank you for your suggestion, but I guess I am fine," he said, being a bit rude when dismissing me. But I wasn't offended. I know he was feeling some type of way.

"Zan—," as I tried to ask him about Zane, the little scoff from him confused me.

“Yeah, where is he? Somebody fucking kidnapped you, and he is out there probably wasting his time with his friends," The way he said it, I wasn't a fool to not understand he was trying to tell me Zane doesn't care about me because he can't even keep me safe.

"Maddox, that is really unfair. He probably doesn't even know. Did you inform him?" I asked him and watched him roll his eyes at me.

"Why would I ask him? I didn't know you were two had become an item," Maddox scoffed. His attitude has changed in a few minutes.
