She almost stabbed me that day I visited you.” It makes me feel like we’re conducting business.” A dusky, heady smoke of a man I could feel and see but never catch. I would always seek him out, and he would always retreat to the shadows. I knew, with certainty that scorched my soul, that it was going to be our norm if I accepted his offer. He turned around, making his way to the door.Ī flashback of myself watching him leave and asking him to stay at Sailor and Hunter’s wedding slammed into me. That’s my final offer, and it’s a generous one. “You’re not going to have a life if you don’t accept. You’re talking about the rest of my life here.” Still, if I was going to officially sign the rest of my life over to the man who crushed me, I needed to at least give myself a few days to process it. It’s not like the mob is after you,” his rich-boy diction mocked me.
