Our stares shifted to her.
“Christian said you needed this.” She handed me his shirt, and I put it on before she declared, “I found her for you, Jax.”
Those six words almost knocked me on my ass, and we immediately locked eyes.
“I’m sorry, what?”
“You heard me, but I’ll say it again. I found her for you.”
“You found Sophie?”
“I did.”
“Where?”
“In Seattle.”
“She lives in Seattle?”
“She has a few homes, but one of them is in Seattle, and she’s there visiting right now. She primarily lives in Texas, closer to Dallas, though.”
“How did you—”
“I called in a favor.”
Seconds, minutes, hours could have flown by, and not once did I form a coherent thought until my phone rang. Caleb’s name lit up my screen, and I hit ignore. Unable to talk to him too. I was too wound up with Autumn finding Sophie.
After all this time.
All these years.
She. Found. Her.
“I didn’t ask you to look for her, Red.”
“I know, but sometimes my job is just knowing what’s best for you, and right now, you need her.”
When it came to Sophie, I’d locked up my emotions long ago. I didn’t expect us to cross paths again. The day I moved to Miami, I’d left everything behind and never looked back. I knew she loved me, telling me all the time, but it wasn’t hard to notice. Her ability to blush over the simplest gestures was one of my favorite things about her.
Her innocence was my other.
She was different from the girls I was used to, and it was always my initial draw to her from the very start. She didn’t move into the guesthouse where her mom lived on our property until she was seventeen and I was eighteen. She was living with her dad before moving to Fort Worth and attending my high school.
She was shy.
Sweet.
Delicate.
However, the woman I ran into randomly five years later was nothing like the girl I remembered from back home. She was completely different, from her appearance to her personality—it was like night and day.
Gone was the innocent girl and in her place stood a fucking vixen. The effect she had on me was instant. In a matter of seconds, she held all my attention in a way that only she ever could. Not only was I captivated by her, but I was also infatuated from the moment I laid my eyes on her.
She was beautiful.
Fucking breathtaking.
Stealing all the air from my lungs as if it belonged to her.
