Naomi has spent years being very specific about why she hates Kai Mercer.
He's been in her life since she was old enough to remember, her brother's best friend, the one who always knew exactly where to push, who looked at her like she was something he'd already figured out. When she was sixteen, he made sure she knew it.
She never forgot.
Now she's broke, unemployed, and out of options, which means she's living in his apartment.
Kai is her brother's captain, his best friend, the person Easton trusts above everyone. He's kept his distance for ten years for reasons Naomi doesn't know and he's never planned to tell her.
Forced into the same space, the same mornings, the same late nights, the hate starts to feel like something else. Not softer...just different. The kind of different that's harder to ignore than anger ever was.
She still hasn't forgiven him for what he did.
He's never stopped carrying why he did it.
Some things were always going to end up here.
