Steaming, Sebastian flies up out of his seat and makes a dramatic exit out the front door."Is he always so crazy?" I asked."Yeah. But he's a hot fuck. You'll see.""No thanks... I'll pass. That kid's severely psychotic.""He's just a jealous mess.""Why did you marry him?""We're not married. We're in an open relationship.""Thank God. I was seriously worried.""YEAH. Well I better go find him- before he slits his wrists.""GOOD IDEA. Better take some duct tape-- just in case you're too late.

Uninhibited From Lust To Love

"

Just as Cam left Ivo Jenner__ apartments, St. Vincent met him in the hall. There was a scowl on the blond man__ face, and a vein of chilling arrogance in his tone. __f my wife finds comfort in trite Gypsy homilies, I have no objection to your offering them. However, if you ever kiss her again, no matter how platonic the fashion, I__l make a eunuch of you._ The fact that St. Vincent could stoop to petty jealousy when Ivo Jenner was not yet cold in his bed might have outraged some men. Cam, however, regarded the autocratic viscount with speculative interest. Deliberately calibrating his reply to test the other man, Cam said softly, __ad I ever wanted her that way, I would have had her by now._ There it was_ a flash of warning in St. Vincent__ ice-blue eyes that revealed a depth of feeling he would not admit to. Cam had never seen anything like the mute longing that St. Vincent felt for his own wife. No one could fail to observe that whenever Evie entered the room, St.Vincent practically vibrated like a tuning fork. __t is possible to care about a woman without wanting to bed her,_ Cam pointed out. __ut it appears that you don__ agree. Or are you so obsessed with her that you can__ fathom how anyone else could fail to feel the same?_ ____ not obsessed with her,_ St. Vincent snapped. Leaning a shoulder against the wall, Cam stared into the man__ hard eyes, his usual reserve of patience nearly depleted. __f course you are. Anyone could see it._ St. Vincent gave him a warning glance. __nother word,_ he said thickly, __nd you__l go the way of Egan._ Cam raised his hands in a mocking gesture of self-defense. __arning taken.

But it's that fucking dress she's wearing. It's low-cut and tight and just...Jesus. Why would she wear a dress like that? Is she doing it just to torture me?

I look around the wedding suspiciously, trying to see if anyone is looking at her. I don't want to have to punch someone out, but i'll do it if I have to.

That is the way with us when we have any uneasy jealousy in our disposition: if our talents are chiefly of the burrowing kind, our honey-sipping cousin (whom we have grave reasons for objecting to) is likely to have a secret contempt for us, and any one who admires him passes an oblique criticism on ourselves. Having the scruples of rectitude in our souls, we are above the meanness of injuring him__ather we meet all his claims on us by active benefits; and the drawing of cheques for him, being a superiority which he must recognize, gives our bitterness a milder infusion.
