As he climbed the stairs, Lucas had no clue what suit he was going to wear, since his lucky one was still in a crumple along his stairs. He really should have hung the suit up, but the more he thought about it, getting Fallon in his bed was more important at the time. A sly grin came over his face at the thought of Fallon moaning out his name the night before and he couldn’t wait to see her again. Couldn’t wait to hold her and kiss her one last time before he was gone for four days.
Lucas reached the back door, pushing it open in a rush. When his eyes fell on Levi, the grin that was on Lucas’ face disappeared and thoughts of Fallon went along with it.
Because Levi wasn’t alone.
Audrey was in his arms.
Practically naked.
Chapter 35
Lucas felt like he was having an out-of-body experience.
All he could hear was Fallon’s words of what the guy had done to Audrey, what he had called her and how he had treated her. Lucas stood in the doorway, stunned as his eyes left Audrey’s shocked face and met with Levi’s laughing ones. Rage filled Lucas from the inside out as his pulse picked up in speed. His jaw clenched as his workout bag dropped to the ground.
“Lucas,” Audrey gasped. She moved away from Levi and picked up a shirt up off the ground before putting it on. “Oh God.”
Levi laughed. “What’s the big deal A? It’s just Lucas.” A tick started in Lucas’ eyes as he watched Audrey scramble for her clothes. “He knows I have sex.”
Lucas saw red and at that moment, he knew he was going to kill his best friend.
Lucas wasn’t thinking, he just acted as he closed the distance between them. His hand came around Levi’s throat, slamming him into the wall as Audrey let out a shrilling scream. Levi looked up at Lucas with a dumbfounded look on his face but Lucas didn’t care. He had known that Levi was an ass to girls, but being an ass to Audrey wasn’t going to cut it.
Not Audrey.
“What the f**k dude!” Levi struggled to say. “Let me go.”
“Lucas!” Audrey screamed. She ran towards them and tried to push him away, but he wasn’t going anywhere.
“You like hurting girls,” Lucas sneered. He leaned in close almost touching Levi’s nose with his own. “Let’s see how you like the pain.”
Audrey took a hold of Lucas’ bicep and pulled as she cried, “Please Lucas, quit. Please. It’s fine.”
Lucas looked over at her and shook his head. “No, he isn’t going to hurt you anymore.”
“What the f**k have you told him, you bitch?!” Levi yelled. Lucas slowly looked back over at Levi and watched as Levi’s eyes went wide. Lucas then pulled back and slammed his fist into the space right beside Levi’s head. Audrey screamed out as Levi flinched and closed his eyes. Lucas couldn’t believe he was looking at the same person he had thought was his brother for years. He had loved Levi and when he heard or saw the way he treated girls, he didn’t care. He never knew that Levi was physical with them; he only thought he was an ass**le. Finding out that he had physically hurt someone that Lucas personally loved was incomprehensible. Did he even know the person he had been living with for so many years?
Levi opened his eyes and Lucas saw fear along with some anger swirling in his blue eyes. Lucas took in a deep breath, trying to control his breathing and anger, while Audrey stood behind him, screaming and crying to let Levi go.
Lucas cleared his throat and said, “Are you seriously talking to her like that? Are you crazy? That’s Fallon’s sister, not only that, but she is basically my sister. Are you f**king crazy? How dare you?”
“I didn’t do anything to her,” Levi sneered, trying to get away.
Lucas shook his head. “I know that you hurt her and that you’ve said f**ked up things to her. Let me hear that you do it again, Levi, and I swear I’ll f**king kill you.”
Levi shook his head. “I didn’t do anything.”
Lucas dropped his hand from Levi’s throat and took a step back. Levi’s hand came around his throat as he glared over at Audrey. Lucas hoped he wasn’t crazy enough to do anything to Audrey in front of him, but he wasn’t going to put it past him. He moved in front of Audrey, breaking their eye contact, and when Levi looked up at Lucas, he glared.
“I can’t believe you are picking some girl over me,” he spat out.
Lucas shrugged his shoulders. “I can’t believe I’ve lived with someone I really didn’t even know.”
Levi let out an empty laugh. “You used to be the same way.”
Lucas shook his head. “I never hurt a girl in my life.”
Levi moved away from him. “No, you got lucky that Fallon likes it rough. I guess I went after the wrong sister.”
Audrey took in a sharp breath behind him and Lucas shook his head. “I suggest you get the f**k away from me before I put my fist through your head.”
“Whatever dude,” Levi said before leaving the room. When he was gone, Lucas turned to see Audrey looking in the direction that Levi had left in.
“Really Audrey? Levi?”
Audrey glared up at Lucas. “I told you to stay out of it!”
“And I told you I wasn’t going too! Are you crazy? I know Fallon has told you what kind of guy Levi is! What are you doing?”
“I love him!” she screamed before a sob ripped from her body. She fell forward, placing her hands on her thighs for support as tears rushed down her face. Lucas shook his head, running his hands through his hair and resting them at the back of his head as his eyes fell shut. What was he supposed to do? He knew that Levi was a douche and he would never love Audrey, he couldn’t. It wasn’t in his genetic makeup to love anyone but himself. That was who he was.
Lucas reached the back door, pushing it open in a rush. When his eyes fell on Levi, the grin that was on Lucas’ face disappeared and thoughts of Fallon went along with it.
