Chapter 10

Loryn tossed her hair over her shoulder and smiled. It had only been a few hours, and she was already confident that she had Nick wrapped around her pinky finger. He would be hers in no time.

Another dancer, a tall redhead, approached her and held out her hand. “Hi, I’m Amy,” the girl said.

“I’m Loryn,” she replied. She ignored the girl’s hand and instead offered a fake smile.

“I just wanted to introduce myself,” Amy said uncomfortably. “We’re glad to have you on tour.” With that, she went to talk to another dancer whom Loryn had met earlier. What was her name? Krysten? Yeah, it was Krysten.

“Did you figure out why Mattie was so upset last week?” she overheard Krysten say.

“Yeah. Brian walked in on her and Nick, and they were hot and heavy. Brian freaked out and told them they couldn’t date because he’s really worried Nick’s gonna pull the same shit he pulled on Manduh,” Amy answered. Loryn’s ears perked up. This conversation involved her man.

“How did you hear all this?” Krysten asked.

“Brian, Nick, and Mattie kept it to themselves, and the other guys were supposed to, but I could tell something was bugging Kevin, so I asked him about it. He told me everything. I guess Mattie and Brian got into a huge fight over it, and that’s why they stayed away from each other in Paris,” Amy explained. “Then Mattie talked to him, and they got on speaking terms again.”

“I don’t see why Brian won’t just let them do what they want. Look at the way they act together. They’re so in love!” Krysten exclaimed.

Loryn had decided she had had enough. Nick would be hers as of tonight, but first she had to think of a plan to get Madeleine out of the way.
