Shaye’s so fucking gorgeous, it tears my heart out to see her in here of all places. There’s a bittersweet taste in my mouth because we were never meant to cross paths again. I made sure of that. A chick like her needs to be as far away from a bastard like me as possible.

Yet fate has thrown us together, and now she’s a screw in my head, twisting and twisting deeper until she’ll be all I can think of.

If I go back to her now with any type of apology or explanation, she’ll chew me up and spit me out. She’s so furious, and I can’t blame...
