Another heartache.
But Molly wasn’t, and still isn’t, anything like my ex-wife. And the thought of making Molly into more than just something I want to fuck every five seconds has been on my mind since before she even got pregnant.
And even that feels like it was a short-lived timeframe, from when she told me up until I found the article.
I’m not one to open up easily about my feelings and Molly brings out a lot of them.
Anger.
Hunger.
Gratitude.
Satisfaction.
And happiness.
Honestly, there isn’t shit all that I need more of. I think I’d actually addobsessionin there as well if I’m being totally truthful. But things need to change and I have to get them back on track before I lose something that barely got onto its feet. I’m starting to run out of stories to tell Lark and Bria about why Molly has been gone for so long and I can’t continue to keep lying to them if she doesn’t plan on coming back.
It's something I wanted to talk about tonight on the phone, but Molly brushed me off with the promise of seeing me soon.
I’m just hoping she didn’t mean the next doctor’s appointment because that is too long from now.
“You really shouldn’t drink alone.”
My fingers loosen around my beer bottle in shock to the sound of that voice. I haven’t heard it spoken here in weeks. I slowly turn my head over my shoulder to find Molly standing next to me, just feet away.
In the same exact dress she wore when she came to get hired for the job.
“I wasn’t going to call the blonde and get blood all over my back patio,” I impart, even though that’d never happen. Molly is irreplaceable as far as I’m concerned and I’m not looking to erase anything of what we had from my mind.
“Smart man.”
My gaze falls down the white material of her dress to her palm that’s holding her barely noticeable pregnant belly. “You’re wearing the same dress.”
Molly doesn’t speak for a moment, earning my stare back on her face and into those lucid green eyes. “Am I?”
As I rise from my chair, it takes everything in me not to toss my beer to the side and drag her into my arms, but I refrain. I’m not sure if Molly wants to be touched right now and the last thing I want to do is make her uncomfortable.
“When you said someone was going to be here to enforce the rules, I didn’t think you meant tonight.”
She smiles at me, drawing attention to the freckles high along her cheekbones. “Well, I wasn’t going to call Myles, now was I? The man can’t be trusted with the kind of company he invites over.”
“I’m not sure you’d care.”
That beautiful smile disappears in a blink and I hate that I made it disappear. However, I’m not sure what path we’re heading down and if I should force her down the one I want.
“If I didn’t care, you never would’ve had your text messages responded to.”
“It took you long enough.”
She glares at me. “And now he wants to talk.”
“There are plenty of things you could’ve threatened me with that would have made me open my mouth, sweetheart,” I say. “One of them being your pussy and how I couldn’t enter it anymore.”
“My pussy is the last thing I was thinking about while holding your baby, Kai,” she carps right back. “Our relationship and how we were managing things was my worry.”
“I needed time.”
