Chapter 32: Setting Things Right

Seeley palmed the pristine white cue ball in her hand, scanning the table for the best sequence of shots. Like a complex math equation going through her head, she knew that each factor, each variable, had to be precisely calculated for her to win.

The copper-haired pool shark knew she had to sink every shot she had left because if Colton got another shot, it would be game over for her.

And game over for Lewis’ job and Asher’s.

Asher….

…No. She couldn’t think about him.

Then, she saw it—the perfect placement for the first shot. She swooped around the table, grazing her shaking fingers across the luxury felt until she got to the opportune angle and placed the cue ball on the table. She caught Colton rolling his eyes out of the corner of her eye. He knew she chose the best spot on the table.
