"For a woman, you punch me?" William steadied himself against the wall, nostrils flaring. "I'll fight you too, Sean! This is insane!"

Sean gently shifted me behind him, placing himself between William and me in a gesture that was unmistakably protective.

"Try it," Sean challenged, his tone still unnervingly calm.

William lunged forward, fist drawn back. Sean caught his punch mid-air with disturbing ease, fingers closing around William's knuckles like a vise.

"Who's losing their mind?" William spat back. "You're the one who's lost it! How can you face Christina after this? What kind of man are you?"

William's other hand shot up unexpectedly, connecting with Sean's jaw. I gasped involuntarily, my heart racing as I watched the two men square off.

"Sean, please stop!" Christina's voice cut through the tension as she stepped forward, eyes

glistening with tears. She grabbed William's wrist desperately. "William, don't hit him!
