Chapter 9

ARIANNA

Daniel had cheated on me. From the very start of our relationship.

And always with men.

The way he was looking at Javi now, the love in his eyes—Cristo, had Daniel ever really loved me?

He said he was sexually confused by what happened. Could that mean that he was gay? That he’d be happier with Javi? That maybe he never should have been with me at all?

He wanted Javi’s help. Not mine.

Never mine.

Daniel had fucking divorced me rather than tell me the truth. Rather than ask me for help.

Why the fuck was I still standing here, watching them?

I turned to go, not sure where I was going, only that I couldn’t look at Daniel right now. A lump filled my throat and tears stung my eyes. I loved him. I loved him so damn much.

And I wasn’t enough for him. I’d never been enough.

His hand wrapped around my bicep. “Ari—”

I shoved his hand away and kept going, unable to speak. And I sure as shit did not want him to see what he was doing to me.

I yanked open the door. I started for my room, but one of them would just come after me. I turned for the stairs instead. I was wearing one of Javi’s white button-downs over a pair of his black boxer trunks, and I didn’t fucking care who saw me. I just needed to get the hell away from Daniel. From them.

From the two of them.

They wanted to be together. And they didn’t need me in the middle.

Dios, I was an idiot. Pining for two men who loved each other.

I was stepping off the bottom stair when I heard Javi’s voice. “Corazón, stop.”

The tears started falling in earnest now. I couldn’t do this. I couldn’t.

I raced across the slate floor of the lobby and out the French doors to the back terrace, Javi right on my heels. I hadn’t taken more than a step or two outside when his arms went around me, pulling my back tight to his chest, his warmth enveloping me, and a sob ripped out of my throat. “Let me go,” I pleaded, trying to keep my voice steady but failing miserably.

“Never,” he said into my hair, his voice thick. He nudged me over to a table and chairs on the terrace and tugged me down onto his lap, and I couldn’t help it. I sobbed all over his shirt. His large hands stroked my back, his voice a soft murmur in my ear. “It’s okay, mi amor. Let it out.”

“Why couldn’t he tell me?” I forced out. “I would’ve helped him. I would’ve understood.”

“We’re talking about Daniel. And you. Two of the proudest, most stubborn people I’ve ever met.”

I wiped my eyes and took a deep breath. “So? I’m not heartless.”

Javi brushed the hair out of my eyes and smiled. “Of course not. But you’re telling me you would have understood what he was going through when you were eighteen and he was twenty-one?”

I shrugged. “I don’t know. Maybe. But he never even gave me a fucking chance.
