Aaron just smiled. "So that's how you handle things? Snatch someone up whenever you feel like it, then pretend it's no big deal when you let them go?" Wayne knew Aaron wasn't here just for Lena-this was about more than her.

"What do you want from me? An apology?" Wayne muttered, taking a small step back.
Aaron just glanced at Lena. "Not my call. You should be asking her." Wayne's face twisted like he'd swallowed a lemon. He hated being humiliated, and Aaron wasn't even subtle about it.

Aaron didn't even flinch. "Since I'm already here, wouldn't it be rudelif skipped your dad's funeral?" he quipped, smooth as ever. Lena shota quick, reassuring look. She trusted Aaron completely, and I had to admit, he did seem unshakable.
Still, Wayne wasn't dumb. He had to have a plan. If tomorrow was the day move could Aaron Hayden made his mo really handle whatever Wayne was scheming? Wayne's tone turned icy, dropping the fake niceties. "No need. We don't do uninvited guests."
