and you took advantage of that. Is that true?"
    Letting out a frustrated breath, Corey stopped his exploration.
    "I never made any promises, I never lied to her," Corey said.
    "You slept with her after she told you how she felt. Any girl would believe that means her feelings are reciprocated."
    "Kelly, this right here has nothing to do with Peyton. I don't have to explain my actions to anyone, certainly not to you."
    "Fair enough. But answer this. You've been trying to get me into your bed for years now. Is that because you have feelings for me? I mean , you wouldn't be this persistent if I was just like all the other girls."
    Corey looked at the blonde woman and frowned. What planet was she from? Everyone knew the Legend Killer didn't do feelings.
    "I take it that's a no," Kelly stated.
    "I think you need to go," Corey said, still frowning. The last thing he needed was another crazy female confessing her love for him.
    "I wasn't going to stay, anyway," Kelly said as she got up from his lap. "Men like you make me sick. I'd never willingly give myself to you."
    If she'd shut her mouth and let him do his thing, she'd have been naked and 'willingly giving herself to him' now.
    "Then what the fuck are you even doing in here?"
    John chose that moment to walk in, saving him from an awkward situation.
    "Hey, Kelly," John smiled when he noticed her.
    The blonde just scowled at him as she angrily brushed past him to the door.
    "I don't know how you can be friends with that man," she said to John just before the door slammed behind her.
    Frowning, John looked at his friend.
    "What the hell have you done now?"
    "I have no idea," he lied. "Where's Rae? Is she still with Irving?"
    "I've just seen Irving downstairs. He hasn't seen her since breakfast," John said. "My guess is she went looking for Dave."
    "At least someone is getting laid," Corey muttered.
    "Maybe she's trying her new thing," John said as he got his clothes ready for the appearance he was making in town.
    "What, getting to know him? Did you not see her in the elevator. If we hadn't been there, she would have jumped him right there," Corey laughed. "The whole thing is a joke. She'll never stick to it."
    "I hope she does. It'll be interesting to see what she's like when she falls in love."
    Corey just chuckled as he got up from the couch.
    "Then you'll be waiting for that a fucking long time," he said. "I'm going to take a cold shower, Kelly's just a cock teasing bitch."
    "Oooh. The great Corey Steele was shot down," John laughed.
    "I'd have had her if she hadn't started shooting off a load of shit. I just didn't want a repeat of the Peyton situation."
    "How is it that all these women want you when they all know what a dick you are?"
    "I'm irresistible. What can I say," Corey laughed.
    ***
    Rae cursed as she stumbled into the room she was sharing with John and Corey. These fucking headaches were getting worse, even with the strong painkillers she was popping down like candy. She could be fine one second then feel like her head was being sawn open the next. Dr. Harvey had explained what would happen. The pain would get worse as the pressure on her brain increased. Eventually she would be in pain the whole time.
    How would she stand anything worse than this? She couldn't. She wouldn't.
    She swallowed some more painkillers and a very strong sleeping pill, knowing she would be over the worst when she eventually woke up. She was grateful Corey and John had already gone to their signing, she would have had to explain herself otherwise. Now was definitely not the time. The last thing she needed was for them to drag her down to the hospital. She would never step foot in a hospital or doctor's office again. Never.
    Corey had offered Alyssa a lift back to the hotel at the end of the signing. The three of them had been booked at the same place along with a handful of other fighters. She was hot but he would never think of messing with her, she was way too sweet to be treated like dirt.
