Two more dings and I wipe my eyes, then open the app.
Lucky:Hey:) I know you don’t know me well, and this is totally random, but I saw you take off tonight.
Lucky:Wow that makes me sound like a stalker. I’m Cal’s neighbor, and I just wanted to make sure you’re okay.
A laugh leaves my throat and I’m shocked. I don’t know why Patience is messaging me. Out of all the people in the world to contact me right now… She’s the last person I would expect.
Lucky:Cal is a dick. I don’t know what he did, but you deserve to be treated better. He’s changed. He used to be my best friend and a great guy.
Does she know about us? Did he tell her? I mean Cal did chase after me. Maybe I should have stopped, listened to what he had to say. Hope fills my heart and I take some shaky breaths in. I need to know. I can’t believe I was about to end it all. I need to try. Try to overcome the darkness. I can't let it win, miss a chance at a life with him. A future.
Lucky:Okay, I’ll leave you alone. But I’m here if you ever want to talk. Day or night.
Tears fill my eyes again and I wipe them away. I don’t know if it's fate, or if she’s my guardian angel. But Patience James just saved my life, and I will never forget that. I look up at the ceiling and cry, thanking God for giving me hope, and someone who cares.
Chapter Twenty-Two
The doorbell rings and I groan. Ki is still passed out in my bed, and I don’t need or want to fight with Cal anymore. He was drunk and more than happy to rip me to shreds. How the hell am I going to marry him? He hates me. I know my dad loved me. He would have never forced this if he knew how badly Cal would treat me in the future.
He saw him as a happy teenager who had a crush on me. One of the boys I loved. How could he have known his death would change Cal completely? I open the app on my phone to check the door cameras, and Nate is outside, about to ring the bell again. He has a bottle of whiskey and looks trashed too. I groan and kick the blankets off me. Ki mumbles something but doesn’t stir. I wish I could sleep as fucking peacefully as him right now. I’m exhausted.
Mentally and physically. I should just pack my bags and run away. Get the hell out of here. Then what would everyone do? Why does it all have to fall on my shoulders? I don’t bother with a robe and walk down the stairs to the front door. The moment I open it, Nate has his hand on my neck and is kissing me with everything he has. I’m frozen at first, but I soon melt into his kiss.
He pulls away with a sad sigh and rests his forehead on top of mine. “Don’t marry him, rabbit, please,” he softly pleads, and my heart breaks once more.
“I have to,” I whisper, and he looks at me with pain-filled eyes. I know this is hurting him, but I don’t have a choice. This is all my dad’s fault, and his mom’s. I just don’t understand why. I still need to finish the letter. But at the moment, I’m too upset, and I fear I may rip it to shreds, which would be devastating. It’s my father’s last words to me.
I grab his hand, take the whiskey, and pull him into the house before shutting the door. I don’t want him to leave. Kian is already in my bed. What’s one more of my secret boyfriends? Or well, I guess we never did make it official, and now we never can.
He stumbles up the stairs, and when we reach my room, he’s all over me. I drop the bottle onto the carpet, hoping it doesn't break, and kiss him back. My fingers trail along his strong shoulders, and I bite down on his lip piercing. He growls and grinds his hardness into my stomach. Fuck, he’s getting me hot, and I don’t think Ki would like it very much to wake up with Nate inside of me.
“We have to stop,” I gasp, as his hands grab my ass and he lifts me.
“I don’t want to stop, rabbit. I have wanted you forever. I told you I would share you, but I won’t ever let Cal steal you from me. You’re mine.” I whimper as his cock grinds against my swollen clit through our clothes.
I kiss him harder as he opens the door to my room, and I’m not surprised to find Kian awake and watching us with the small light on. I pull away and raise my eyebrow at Ki. He rolls his eyes and moves over in the bed.
“Let me down,” I tell Nate, and he kisses me once more, then puts my feet back on the ground. I saunter over to Ki and kiss him softly, testing the waters. His fingers grab the back of my neck, holding my lips to his. A soft sigh leaves my mouth and he tangles his tongue with mine. I climb onto the bed and straddle his lap. Shuffling by the door pulls my attention away from him.
Nate looks awkward, so I offer him a soft smile and pat the bed. He seems to be thinking of something, but kicks off his shoes and takes a seat. He’s still drunk, so I know I won’t be riding his dick, but it doesn’t mean that I can’t give him a show.
Offering him a wink, I place a hand on his shoulder and turn him so I can kiss him too. Kian grips my hips and rocks me on top of him. I gasp and Nate growls. Lips caress my throat and I whimper when Kian bites down.
“Fuck,” I moan and Ki laughs, rocking me harder. I’m close and I haven’t even removed his boxers.
“Is this what you want, baby girl?” Ki growls. I nod, glancing at Nate and he seems on board with everything too. Placing my hand on his chest, I give him a soft push. He leans against my mountain of pillows with a smile.
“I want you. Both of you, but you’ve been drinking. So, I think for now, I’m just going to have my wicked way with you while you watch Kian fuck me hard.” I watch Nate's throat bob with his swallow, and his glassy hazel eyes haze over with lust.
“So naughty,” Kian growls and gives me a firm smack on my ass, making me moan loudly. I wait for Nate to consent. He rips off his shirt and I’m lost in the dark ink swirling on his left pec. It’s a badass-looking rabbit with my eyes. My heart swoons and I lean down to kiss him with everything I have.
I don’t know what the future will hold, but I know that Nate Reynolds will always be mine. I’m not giving him up.
Kian
I watch as Patience continues to kiss Nate. I’m getting impatient, but I know they need this time. I never saw myself sharing her with a Reynolds, but after the talk Nate and I had, I know that he loves her and would do anything to keep her happy. Same as me. But I still worry that our time is running out. I know she keeps saying that she will never choose, but soon she isn't going to have that luxury.
She still doesn’t know how her grandfather works, and Cal’s father is worse. I will do whatever I can to protect her, even if that means leaving her.
