I sucked in a breath as I felt his nose run up the back of my now exposed neck thanks to him mo...

The last few weeks had been hectic. Alessandro was out of the hospital and doing much better. I'm pretty sure half of that was due to him and Ash rekindling their romance.
I had been stressing over what to do with Ryan and wondering when Owen was going to make his next move. I felt like a sitting duck waiting around for something to happen.
Which is why we ended up back at the base today. We entered Ryan's interrogation room, everyone fell back while I walked towards him.
He looked rough and he smelled like shit.
"What do you want?" he spat as I sat down in front of him. "Watch it." Gianni growled out from his spot on the wall.
"It's ok, Gianni." I assure turning back to Ryan, studying him. "After everything you've witnessed Owen do, you still stuck by him." Ryan scoffed, turning his towards the wall.
"He's killed two pregnant women, his unborn children, and you cleaned up the mess. You cleaned up the love of you life's body. Got on you hands and knees like the loyal mutt you are and cleaned up her blood."
"Stop." Ryan whispered, his breathing getting harder, chest heaving up and down as my words hit him deep.
"Did you really love her?" I leaned back into the chair before continuing." Because if I knew the person who killed the love of my life, I would do anything in my power to make sure that they were dead, to make sure they suffered." Ryan shook his head as I stood up and walked towards him.
"But you stood beside him, like a fucking coward."
"Shut up." His voice getting louder as I came closer to him. " You didn't love her did you, maybe you loved the idea of her, but you didn't love her. If you did, Owen would be six feet under and you wouldn't be here right now."
"You don't know shit." he growled, finally looking at me. "I loved her, I still fucking do. Do you think I want to play the role of Owen's loyal mutt ?"
"Do you think I wanted to sit back and watch him kill those women, watch him fuck you up mentally and physically? You were my friend and I let him abuse you. I let him make you feel like you were nothing and I watched as you changed."
I was Ryan's friend at one point. We were close until that all changed.
Until Owen changed.
"Maybe I am a coward for not sticking up for you. For not killing him when I had the chance." He looked down at his hands, fiddling with them as he spoke. " I had to wash her blood off of my hands. He knew how we felt about each other and he made me clean..." he choked on a sob as he leaned forward, running his hands through his hair.
"He made me clean her fucking blood off of the floor and dump her body."
I felt the burn in the back of my eyes as I held back my tears. I felt for Ryan, I really did, but right now he needed to get his shit together. We weren't going to let that sick fuck get away with this.
