Jax tried to focus on making breakfast and he made a deliberate effort not to look Mari's way since he didn't want her to dare him into doing something he might regret.
He thought about what she said about asking Chad to be her fuck buddy and he wondered if she meant it or if she was just messing with him.

He knew without a doubt that Chad would never give in to her, but it bothered him that she would even want to ask Chad that.
Was it that she just wanted to have sex with anyone and it wasn't about being attracted to him?
Mari's lips were curved in a smile as she watched him, while kicking her legs slowly beneath the island.
She could tell he was mad. It wasn't the loud, yelling kind of mad. It was the quiet, brooding, dangerous kind. And for some twisted reason, she liked it. It made her heart race. It made her wonder how much passion he had buried in there.
