"Excuse me? Is that a threat?" I asked in a low murmur, turning my head back to watch my friends. They were busy celebrating the good news they had received from Gavin and Lucy.
"Why would you think of me as that evil person who only threatens you?" he tilted his head, his giant shoulders looking even more imposing from this angle.
"I'm just warning you. Your decision to stand up for my brother might not have been received well by my mother. So whatever you do, make sure you don't get yourself into trouble with her," he said, holding the plate out for me, his voice dropping with caution.
"And why would you warn me?" I questioned, genuinely confused.
"Because my brother cares too much about you. It's not that I don't hate you--I still do. You're pretty hateful. However, my hatred shouldn't be the reason my brother gets hurt. So, whatever your plans are for him--" My heart skipped a beat when he mentioned Kaye and me like that.
What did he mean by that?
