      Liv was rapidly losing the will to live. ‘I said it was your bacon.’

      When Cade remained grimly silent, words poured from her in a reckless torrent. ‘I cut those slices you just ate off that lump of meat in the kitchen. You’ve got some excellent knives in yours drawers. I don’t know if you know about them, but they’re really sharp.’

Hadn’t she had enough of that at home from her mother? Wasn’t that what she had escaped from? And wouldn’t it follow her everywhere if she didn’t make a stand? Digging her nails into her palms, she kept her chin tilted firmly up. ‘You just ate your bacon. I cut it from that lump of meat on the side in the kitchen—’

      ‘That lump of meat?’ A muscle worked in Cade’s jaw. ‘That was my prize-winning fletch!’

      Liv flinched as Cade raised his hands, but it was only to rake his abundant hair with stiff, angry fingers.
