~Amelia~
Kaden's head turned.
"I need to talk to you about.." she started.
"No." I cut her off before she could get another word out. "I don't want to hear it. Whatever you're about to say, I don't want to hear it."
"Amelia, please just listen to me."
"Are you still with him?" I asked. "Are you still working with Blake? Because that's the only reason I can think of that you'd be calling me right now, at this hour, after everything. You're gathering information. Or he sent you to mess with my head. Or both."
"That's not what this."
"You have lied to me my entire life, Brittany." I kept my voice controlled. I wasn't yelling. Yelling would have meant she still had the ability to make me feel something heated, and I was past that. This was colder. "My entire life. So you're going to have to do a lot better than a phone call from a blocked number in the middle of the night to convince me this is anything other than another one."
