    I feel Timber’s body tighten behind mine, so I place my hand on his to let him know I got this. “I live here. It’s my home, and I’m not leaving.”
    “You’re only here because Chipper feels sorry for you.  Do you really think he wants some bit of used goods around all the time?”
    “Shut the fuck up,” Reese growls out.  At the same time as Timber says, “Close your fuckin’ mouth before I close it for you.”
    If her earlier words had been a hit to the heart, these are punches straight to the gut.  Not once has anyone brought up what happened to me in Mateland, especially not like that.  Mindy and me talked about it a time or two, but only when I had nightmares, and only to comfort me.  The worst part is that I know Kidd had to have told her, because she would’ve never known about it if he hadn’t. 
    I know I gotta say something, or Reese and Timber are going to go off on her ass.  Finally, I choke out.  “Whatever, seems to me you’re just jealous of this used bit of goods.”
    With that, I start to walk away. I barely make it a foot before she reaches out and grabs my arm.  She swings me around to face her. “Listen here, you little slut.”
    She doesn’t get further before Timber sends the side of his hand into her forearm, causing her to let go. “Hands off. Now!” Timber snaps.
    I stumble backwards, landing in Reese’s arms.  “I got you, Jenna.”
    Timber gets in her face and starts to yell, “I take it you don’t know the fuckin’ rules around here, so let me enlighten you.  She’s the princess around here. Fuck with her, fuck with all of us. There is not a man in this room that wouldn’t lay his life down for her any day.  I know you think you’re big shit because you’re with Kidd, but we don’t give a flying fuck whose dick you’re riding.  You mess with her, and your ass is dead.”
    Sarah’s face pales before responding.  “I was just laying claim to what’s mine.”
    Timber bends closer to her, almost touching her nose with his.  “That’s bullshit, and you know it. You’re time’s coming, and you’re grasping at strings.  But let me tell you, it doesn’t matter what you do. You’ve already lost. Now get the fuck away from me.”
    At that, Sarah turns around and rushes across the room.  I let out a relived breath.  “My God, she’s a bitch.”
    Reese chuckles.  “You got that right, Jenna.” When Reese first came back after being in Mateland with Kidd, he would tell me about Sarah. About how nice she was, sweet, a good person, then she moves here with Kidd, and she turns into a mega bitch. I’ve never seen a nice Sarah, not once since I’ve met her.
    The words barely leave his mouth, before Roxy storms over, taking Sarah’s spot. “What the fuck, Reese? You’re always on my ass about what I do, and here you are with your hands all over the kid.  I better not find out you’re fucking her.”
    “What I do, bitch, is none of your fuckin’ business.”
    “Everything you do is my business, as long as you want Rosalie to keep calling you Daddy,” she shouts. 
    “Time for us to go,” he says, venom dripping from his voice.  He grabs her and starts to move through the room, but stops before leaving the room and turns back to me. “We’ll talk later, babe,” he says to me with a wink, his parting words causing Roxy to freak out yet again.
    I shake my head and walk over to Timber. “I think I’ve had all I can take.”
    I lean into Timber, wrapping my arms around his waist. He wraps his arms around me, bringing me even closer.  “Any other bitches come over here, I’m getting out my gun.”
    I look up to him and giggle.  “You’re a wonderful friend.  Thank you for being there for me today.  I couldn’t have made it through the funeral without you.”
    “Anytime,” he says, placing a kiss on the top of my head. 
    We’re quiet for a moment before I pull back and look up to him. “What the hell is going on with
