Kai POV
“Had a great time?”
That was the first thing Liam said to me once we mind-linked after I came back home.
I was holding a glass of whiskey in my hand and in my annoyance, I might have held it a bit too tightly. I stared at the shattered glass in my hand, the sharp edges biting into my skin, but the pain barely registered. The sting of betrayal, the irritation at Liam’s flippant question – I clenched my fist tighter around the shards, letting them cut deeper as if the physical pain could somehow drown out the storm inside me.
“Fuck off, Liam,” I snapped “If you have nothing useful to say to me tonight, please end the mind-link, I don’t want to talk to you,”.
There was a pause on the other end of the mind-link, I could feel Liam’s hesitation before he finally spoke, breaking the silence.
