Alex clenched his jaw as if bracing for an attack, "Did she get what she was looking for when she came to you?"
He hesitated. It was such a red flag that all of Alex's senses went on high alert.
"Alex, I know you're hurting and feeling betrayed. But you have to understand...she's been through...a lot. You need to be patient with her."
"I have been nothing but patient and understanding with her. But she's such a goddamn mystery. She drives me fucking insane with her-" He ran his hands through his hair and looked up to see Max smirking at him.
I was trained as an undercover assassin and sent to infiltrate a crime lord's ring. When I was discovered they captured and tortured me for months.
The sudden sarcastic comment popped in his brain and all the blood drained from his face.
"You motherfucking bastard. You sent her undercover to infiltrate a crime ring?" Alex's hands fisted and his blood boiled with rage.
