"I don't want to know because I don't want to hurt Cormac for saying something to you when it has to be over a year ago. I know he runs his mouth, he's rude but it's why I like him too. He doesn't treat me like a Death Eater or some spoiled heir who's deigning to work. He's always been the same with me."
Adrian smiled and leaned up to kiss him. "You totally don't hate me, you love me," he said. "And you can be irrationally possessive over me any day. Not quite the same as angry or irrational but it has much nicer side effects."
He glared at Stephen. "Don't you dare laugh," he warned. "And of course I'd hit you back but I wouldn't want to. I certainly would never hit you properly."
