disbelieving look.
    ‘But you gotta be careful, darlin’. You gotta be real careful. You understand?’
    She takes a step back and smiles slightly. Yeah. She’s got this.
    Mack Slayer’s back.
    And he ain’t losing this time.
     
     
    Izzi
     
    I’m shocked at how sick I feel as I watch him pounding into her. I recognize her from the party last night, but I hadn’t realized she was interested in Mack. But why wouldn’t she be? And what business is it of mine who Mack’s fucking anyway, he isn’t mine anymore. And I want to look away, but I can’t, and I feel my skin prickle as he comes within minutes and pulls out of her immediately, leaving her to bring herself off. It’s an odd exchange, and as I watch them I see no real physical attraction between them, because even though I tried to keep Mack at arm’s length, in the beginning, that wasn’t because I wasn’t attracted to him. I was. I ached for him at times. But I see none of that from her; from either of them, so I can only assume she was conveniently there when he needed some relief, and she was quite willing to give it to him and receive nothing in return. That’s how Mack Slayer used to work, and why wouldn’t he go back to his old ways? There’s no reason for him to change now.
    I lean back against the doorpost and fold my arms as she sashays towards me, a slow smile spreading across her pretty face – a face that doesn’t need as much make-up as she’s got plastered on it.
    ‘Enjoy the show, sister?’
    She nudges my shoulder as she walks past and I’m guessing that wasn’t an accident. And I wait until she’s left the compound before I head into the clubhouse.
    Mack’s leaning back against the bar, checking his phone, but the second he hears me approach he looks up and slides his phone back into his pocket.   ‘Hey.’
    ‘Who’s she?’ I jerk my head back towards the door.
    ‘Just some biker groupie looking for work.’
    ‘Interview go well, did it?’ I don’t even try to hide the sarcasm in my voice as I lean back against the table behind me, my eyes never leaving his. And then he laughs, and digs his hands into his pockets.
    ‘You saw, huh?’
    I don’t reply. I just continue to stare him out.
    ‘Does it bother you? Me, fucking another woman?’
    ‘It’s none of my business who you fuck, Mack.’
    ‘Yeah. You got that right, darlin’.’ He waits a couple of beats before he speaks again. ‘You want something? Or you just come here to interrogate me?’
    His tone is cold, and I almost shiver, there’s that much ice in his voice. ‘I just came to…’ I stop, because I don’t know what I actually came here to do. I was on my way to the club when I found myself turning into the compound, and that kind of scares me a little. I was on my way to see Zeb, and now I’m here?
    ‘Y’know something, Izzi?’ I look up as he moves closer, stopping just in front of me, tucking a finger under my chin and tilting my head back slightly. ‘This whole loved-up thing you got going down with Zeb, I ain’t buying it. You can cut your hair and change your appearance and pretend like it’s all good. Like you really have left that twisted bitch behind and become some kind of doting wife to my jackass cousin, but me? I ain’t buying it.’
    I don’t know what he’s doing, but his words cut through me like a chainsaw.
    ‘But, y’know what? I’m done with you, darlin’. You’ve fucked with my head enough, and I’m done now.’
    ‘So what was that, huh? Some kind of initiation ceremony? Something to prove to yourself the old Mack Slayer really is back?’
    ‘He never went away, baby. He just got distracted by some messed-up kid who didn’t know what the fuck she wanted.’
    ‘Why are you dong this?’
    ‘Because you need to know, Izzi. That I’m done with you. So I don’t want you trying to fuck me over again, OK? You still got any feelings for me, you keep ‘em to yourself, you got that? ‘Cause I don’t wanna know no
