Excerpt:
“Shit, Sam! Baby Girl, are you okay?”
God, please no. Calling me Baby Girl
now was like sticking a knife directly into my already broken heart. Lucas lifted me
off the ground to help me stand. He wrapped his arms around me and kissed the top
of my head. I always loved when he did that, but now it hurt like hell. It was
torturous, but I let myself feel him one last time. I wanted to remember the way he
smelled, how his arms felt like home—but he wasn’t my home anymore, and it killed
me to know that.
I pushed out of his hold and looked at his face. His
beautiful face. His blue eyes were still glassy, but they were red now. I didn’t want to
believe what I saw. I wanted to look at the unshed tears growing in Lucas’s eyes and
think it meant he really loved me, and he would never ever hurt
me.
I saw an empty cab coming up the block and raised
my arm to hail it. I must’ve fallen hard as blood trickled down my wrist when I held
my hand up. The cab slowed to a stop and I headed to the curb where it waited. I
willed myself to stop crying at least until I got inside.
Lucas grabbed my arm again, shaking his head. “You
can’t leave like this.” His voice was cracking. “I need you, I love you. You
know me, Sam.”
I shook my head sadly. “No. No, I don’t.”
