“I’ll be staying in Vegas for a bit, just to think. I just want you to know so you know where I am,” she says.

“Call me when you want to come home,” I whisper, knowing that if I say anything normally it would be with a broken voice.

“Will you take care of Thorn?” she asks.

“Of course. I just hope that you come home soon,” I whisper, though I know she won’t. But I will take care of Thorn.

“Just give me some time,” she says as she moves to pack a few of her things.

I walk over to her, pulling her into my chest as she starts to cry.

“I will always love you, Briar.”

“I know.”

I watch as she finishes packing her suitcase. She tries to give me my ring back but I refuse, telling her to keep it.

I kiss her one more time before she walks out the door. As soon as it shuts, I break down crying. I’m crying so hard that Remo and Tristan hear me. The only thing I can tell them is that she’s gone. She’s really gone. Fuck.

Briar

I take the elevator down to Thorn’s suite and knock, nervous to tell him I’m staying.

“Hey, Sis. What’s wrong?”

“I’m staying here for a little bit. The wedding is off. I’ll be back, I just need some time. Go home with Kingston, he will need you,” I say.

“I just want you to be happy. Call me everyday, please?” he asks.

“I will. Don’t be too hard on King, this isn’t his fault. Go live your dream,” I say, as tears start to fall.

“I don’t want you to go, but I do understand,” he says.

“Thank you, little brother,” I hug him tightly as if it would be the last time I see him. It won’t but he’s all I got.

He kisses my cheek and then I turn to head to the Flamingo, texting Holden that I’m on my way.

I know that Thorn will go home with King tonight. I know that they will need each other. It makes me feel like shit a little bit, that I’m hurting people but I do need to figure out my feelings.

‘See you when you get here.’

I see the text and I smile a little bit, Holden might be good for me, I don’t know.

I’m torn between two men who care about me and I hope that I’m not making a mistake. I guess only time will tell.
