devon had always been drawn to him, ever since she first saw him. but it had turned into something deeper than physical attraction. she had been convinced that he had been toying with her, only because she was with one of his top competitors. " please shiloh ... let me explain! " she feared that the truth would come out but she never thought her own companion would rat her out. dev had wanted to quit it all when things turned serious and feelings got involved but her companion didn't — him accusing her of going soft for a playboy. dev was the one who had thought shiloh was the asshole while it had always been her that was rotten. " at first i thought you were playing me, that you just wanted another notch in your belt. " lump was forming in her throat as she tried to explain, desperately trying to get him to look at her. " i know i'm fucked up, i wanted revenge when you turned me away ... i thought i wasn't good enough for you. but i swear, i tried stopping it all when we got close. " she'd been so set on getting back at him but that didn't mattered when she got to know him. see how much he cared about the people around him, how hardworking he was and how he wanted to get to know her in return. no one cared about her shit, what she'd been through — but shiloh listened and he understood. " please ... please, don't leave. " teary eyes begged him to understand her now too. she could feel her heart breaking inside her chest, piece by piece. " it wasn't a lie. i don't want to lose you.
