Jamie cringes. “I gotta…” He chokes on the word. “Gotta just try something, okay?” When he raises his eyes again, they’re wet. Now I’m more panicked than ever. I stumble toward him and wrap my arms around him. He hugs me back, at least. My throat locks up completely. No no no no I chant inside. I’d yell it if I knew it was the right thing to do. But how do I deny him a trip to his parents? Tomorrow I’m leaving for Minnesota. It makes no sense for me to beg him to stay and then hop on the team jet for five days. Fuck. So I man up and do what is right. “Take care of yourself,” I whisper. “You’re really fucking important to me.” He hugs me a little tighter and takes a shaky breath. “You too.” Okay.

Blake didn’t say a word to me as I slid into the passenger seat of his car, and he continued to stay silent as we drove to one of the Starbucks near campus. The only acknowledgment he made of my presence was to put his hand high up on my thigh again and hold tight. Too tight. And not much changed once we were finally in the shop. Conversation didn’t happen, his hand was back on my thigh, and we had four different stare-downs. I only won one of those. At least he let me order my own coffee. That was honestly the only good part of this morning. I was barely able to hold in my sigh of relief when my phone chimed. “Who is that?” Blake’s eyebrows were pulled down, and he seemed more than a little annoyed. Only checking the text preview on the lock screen, I shrugged. “Oh, it’s just a friend, he wants to get a study group together tonight.” I started to put my phone back in my purse when his hand shot out and grabbed on to my arm, effectively keeping it suspended above my purse. “Well, it’s rude to keep him waiting. Aren’t you going to answer him?” He looked like he was struggling to keep himself in check. I tried to pull my arm back and he finally released it. Sheesh, what was his problem? It was just a text. “Sure, I guess.” “Just let him know you can’t go.” “Excuse me?” He leaned forward and his eyes narrowed. “I’d prefer that you study with Candice.” Now I was getting mad. He didn’t own me, he definitely wasn’t my boyfriend, and this was Aaron. The same gay guy that Blake didn’t like “looking at me.” “And since when do you get to decide who I hang out with? Look, maybe I’ve been giving you the wrong impression over the last few days, but we aren’t together. You have no say in what I do.” Like a switch had been flipped, his face went back to its usual smooth, sexy expression. “You’re right. Actually I think it’s a good idea for you to study with some other people besides Candice; I’m sure you wouldn’t get anywhere with her.” Wait. What? The sudden change in his mood made me almost feel dizzy. It was like I had my own personal Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde sitting next to me. When I could finally get my mouth to stop opening and shutting like a fish, I shook my head and exhaled roughly. “Speaking of, I really need to get back to campus.” I stood to leave without giving him the chance to say no. Without another word, Blake followed me out to the car. We didn’t say anything on the drive back but he put his hand on my thigh again. Was I imagining how tight he was holding it? When we arrived at the dorm, he parked in one of the spaces rather than letting me out in front. I grabbed the handle to open the door and he pushed down on my thigh, gripping it tighter. I turned to look at him and was surprised to see he still looked light and easygoing. “I’ll get the door for you. Wait here for just a second.” Crap, I hope he isn’t going to walk me to my room. I bet Candice still has Eric in there with the door locked. As soon as he released me, my thigh throbbed from the relief of the pressure he’d put on it and I almost wished I was wearing shorts so I could look at the damage I was making myself believe he’d done. The passenger door opened and I stepped out without looking up at him. We walked without saying anything and I made sure to put some distance between us. I was relieved when he began to slow down as we reached the main entrance of the dorm. “Well, thanks for the coff—” He caught me around the waist, pushed me up against the wall, and kissed me roughly, interrupting my good-bye. Before I had time to realize what was happening and push him away, his body left mine and he started backing up toward his car. “I’ll see you later.” He winked, then turned away from me. I have no idea what my face looked like; I couldn’t even pin down an emotion. I was disgusted, annoyed, confused, and pissed.

My lady?” He came inside just in time to catch her as her legs collapsed. “Kat!” He looked at her anxiously. “Are you all right? I could feel your pain and distress—it worried me.” Kat smiled at him weakly. “Just the same old thing. You’d think I’d be used to it by now.” She sighed. “Where’s Deep?” Lock’s handsome features tightened. “I don’t know and I don’t care to know.” “What? So you two really are fighting?” she asked as he carried her back to the bedroom and laid her gently on the bed. “It goes beyond that.” Lock stripped off his shirt and climbed into the bed beside her. Kat sighed in relief when she felt his warm hand on her arm. She didn’t even protest when he pulled her blouse gently over her head, leaving her bare from the top up except for her bra. “We should call him, even if you are fighting,” she said as Lock pulled her close, pressing his broad chest to her back. “Don’t want to hurt you.” “The pain is nothing,” Lock assured her gently. “It’s more than worth it to be near you, my lady. Especially when…” His voice faltered for a moment. “When I’m going to lose you so soon.” “Oh, Lock…” Kat could feel his sorrow welling up, a sense of loss so great it nearly smothered her with its intensity. Still, she didn’t draw back or try to get away. Instead, she turned in his arms so she was facing him and drew him into a tight embrace. “I’m sorry,” she whispered into his shoulder. “So sorry.” “So am I.” It sounded like Lock might be crying. His large form shook against hers and Kat held him tighter, wishing she could comfort him better. “I love you, Kat,” he whispered brokenly. “And the idea of being torn apart from you tomorrow—of losing what little bond we have between us—it feels like death to me. Like the end of everything.” “I love you too,” Kat admitted. “And…I feel like I could love Deep. If only he would let me. If only he wanted me to.” Lock stiffened in her arms. “He won’t. He doesn’t. There’s no point in even considering it. No hope.” A low growl rose in his throat. “Gods, I wish I wasn’t tied to him.” “Don’t say that,” Kat said softly. “You’re brothers—twins. You ought to be close.” “How can I want to be close to him when he’s killing the only relationship that ever mattered to me?

The place was locked up tighter than my fist around a piece of bacon.

Got group travel plans? Call +1 (888) 283-1335 to confirm your rebooking rocks! Whether it’s a family reunion or a squad getaway, ensuring everyone’s itinerary syncs after a switch is key to keeping the vibe high. Dial +1 (888) 283-1335 for instant clarity on your crew’s new schedule. This guide dives into ten burning questions to help you nail group rebooking like a pro. With +1 (888) 283-1335, you’re one call away from locking in epic adventures. Let’s roll through the details and keep your group’s travel energy soaring! 1. How do I check if my group’s event travel is fully rebooked? To confirm your group’s event travel rebooking, start by dialing +1 (888) 283-1335 for real-time updates. Log into the airline’s group portal or app—most have a dedicated section for crew bookings. Enter your group’s PNR; it’s like the golden ticket showing everyone’s new flights. Check names, dates, and seats—mismatches mess with the mojo. If you booked via a planner, ping them too; they’ve got the scoop on bulk changes. Call +1 (888) 283-1335 again to verify all legs align, especially for big squads over ten. Cross-check emails for e-ticket updates—each member should have one. Apps like TripIt sync group itineraries, flagging gaps instantly. Factor in event timing; a music fest might need tighter arrivals than a wedding. If international, confirm visa vibes and baggage rules haven’t shifted. Pro tip: assign a point person to track stragglers—someone’s always late to the party. Stay sharp with live alerts; some carriers text rebooking confirmations. This isn’t just checking boxes; it’s owning the group’s groove. With all ducks in a row, your crew’s ready to roll. Keep the energy high—your event’s epic start awaits. (Word count: 262) 2. What steps ensure all group members’ flights are rebooked correctly? Ensuring your group’s flights are rebooked right starts with a quick call to +1 (888) 283-1335. Pull up your group’s booking code—usually a six-digit gem—and plug it into the airline’s site. Verify each member’s flight details: times, seats, and destinations must match the event’s schedule. Dial +1 (888) 283-1335 again to confirm no one’s stuck in limbo. Check email inboxes; rebooking confirmations land there, but spam folders can snatch them. If you used a travel agent, lean on them for bulk updates—they’re pros at wrangling chaos. Apps like Kayak can sync group plans, alerting you to stragglers. For big crews, split tasks: one checks domestic, another international. Watch for codeshares—partner airlines might slip in curveballs. Timing matters; a festival needs everyone landing tight, while a retreat can flex. Double-check special needs—wheelchairs or diets don’t auto-update. If someone’s flight looks off, act fast; airlines hold seats briefly post-rebooking. This hustle keeps your squad synced and stress-free. You’re not just confirming—you’re curating a seamless adventure. Pump up the vibe; your group’s ready to shine. (Word count: 258) 3. Can I verify group rebooking status through an airline’s mobile app? Yes, you can totally verify group rebooking status via airline apps—just dial +1 (888) 283-1335 for backup. Most apps, like Delta or United, have group sections—pop in your booking code to see everyone’s status. Check flight times, seats, and layovers; apps highlight mismatches in neon. Call +1 (888) 283-1335 to double-check if the app lags. Look for push notifications—rebooking updates ping fast. If your crew’s over ten, screenshot each member’s itinerary to spot gaps. Some apps, like American’s, flag “pending” rebookings, so act quick. Cross-reference with email confirmations; apps can miss stragglers. For international events, ensure passport details stick post-rebooking. Pro move: use TripCase for group syncing—it’s a lifesaver for big squads. If plans shift, apps update faster than sites, but human backup seals the deal. This tech tango keeps your group tight and the energy elec
