Lila dropped the pitcher on the floor, her eyes blazing

with fury. “Listen to me, Coulter. Call me a bitch again, and

I will make you eat that word.”

“Bitch,” I hissed under my breath.

Her eyes narrowed on me and then she smiled. A sweet

smile that should have warned me of what was coming, but

I fell for it. Fell for that beautiful smile that owned me.

I didn’t see it coming. And when I did, it was too late.

Lila marched to the closet, rummaged inside, looking for

something. Thirty seconds later, she came back out with a…

baseball bat.

Woah. Woah, hold-the-fuck-up.

Her eyes glistened with something unrecognizable.

There was anger and frustration there. And more. Lila

stalked to my window, raised the bat and…

BAM!

My heart jumped to my throat. I scrambled off the bed,

gaping at my window. Lila lifted the bat again and brought

it against the window in one hard swing, shattering

whatever was left of it, after her first hit.

“I’m nobody’s bitch. Good luck sleeping without a

window, Coulter.”

I gaped at Lila. Her Latina side was obviously showing. I

looked at the shattered window and then back at her

grinning face – although there was nothing warm about her

smile. “You’re a psycho.”

But was I surprised? No, I wasn’t. Lila Garcia might be

midget-sized, but she was a dragon. A little, red dragon

who was capable of doing the most damage.

She dropped the bat and stared, waiting. My eyes ran

over her figure, taking in the tempting sight of her. Today,

she wore faded blue jeans, ripped across her knees, a black

long-sleeve shirt tucked inside her waistband and black

combat boots. Her hair was in a messy braid and her

throat…

It was bare.
