Asher

Let’s break up.

The words thunder through my chest the second my eyes open… and if I didn’t know better, I’d swear I could hear my ex-girlfriend shouting in my ear, her face twisted in cruelty and disappointment.

Let’s break up.

I’m still curled around Autumn’s sleeping body, but I don’t stay that way for long; I can’t remain this close to her, not with the guilt bubbling up my throat. I ease my arm from under her shoulders and flop to my back. It’s only now — as the first gray watercolor shades of a dreary afternoon filter through the windows of my cabin — that I realize what I’ve done.

I guess it’s taken the distance of several hours (and one hell of an orgasm) to figure that part out. I’ve slept in through morning and early afternoon, but my subconscious hadn’t given me a break for long. What can I say, though? I’ve never been the smart brother.

Nope. I’m Asher. I’m the hippie brother. The one who lives off the beaten path and doesn’t follow any rules — except the laws of nature. I’m the brother who was so mortified by a tragic accident 15 years ago that he took to the woods.

But now I’m also the brother who took total advantage of his gorgeous co-worker. I’m also the brother who more or less seduced her while she was in an altered state. I’m also the brother whose entire life is about to fall to shit, right in front of his eyes.

Christ. What have I become?

I stare up at the ceiling, my jaw gritted in self-loathing. My stomach roils and pitches as Autumn snores softly beside me, her warm body still pressed right up against mine.

And because I’m the most colossal pervert the world has ever seen, I’m hard. Again.

I suppress a groan, but the damage is done: I took advantage, plain and simple.

Granted, I hadn’t heard her complaining… but that’s not really the problem.

The problem is that I’d let her beauty and curves and our close contact overtake me. The problem is that I’d forgotten about all the valid reasons — my job, her job, my baggage, my entire life — keeping us apart. The problem is that I’d ignored the alarm bells in my head telling me what a horrible decision it is to become intimate with someone I see every day.

I swallow and shake my head, more disgusted with myself than I’ve ever been. And what’s worse is that I know I need to do something drastic to throw her off the scent, to keep her from understanding just how deep my feelings have become.

I can’t lose my job… plain and simple.

And having relations with a co-worker smells an awful lot like losing my job.

Still, I’d never dream of asking her to quit or making her leave. Besides the fact that she’s hands down the best damn ranger I’ve ever worked with, I’m really the one who should be resigning. Maybe she’ll forgive what I’ve done as a moment of weakness.
