Chapter 11

Kayla

Cayson scared the shit out of me. When I felt a hand go over my mouth and nose, I immediately knew I was in trouble. How the hell someone got in this house, I wasn’t sure. All I could do was pray that I’d still be alive tomorrow. Hell, they could take everything in the house; I’d gladly offer to help them load up their vehicle with the most expensive items I could find if that meant I would live another day. Seeing Cayson was the last face I expected to see. Relief filled me when I saw his blue eyes lustfully looking at me, but I pushed that aside and let anger take over. Who does he think he is sneaking in here and scaring the shit out of me?

Standing in front of the mirror, I look at myself, not recognizing the face staring back at me. Mixed emotions wrestle between my brain and my core. The sexy vixen I didn’t know existed deep inside me suggests that I storm out towel-clad to find Cayson, stand before him, and drop my towel to expose my hardened nipples and pulsing sex, and let him ravage me. But it isn’t long before my brain stomps all over the advice my inner core is giving me, so I dress in a pair of yoga pants and a T-shirt before I go in search of Cayson.

I find him sitting on the sofa by the fireplace, holding my book in his hands and staring at what I’ve written to him. When I clear my throat, Cayson quickly shuts the book and places it on the table in front of him.

“Why, Kayla?” he asks, his voice laced with something that sounds like sadness.

“Why what, Cayson?”

“Why end the book the way you did? Why not give Richie and Lara a happy ending?”

I don’t know how to answer the question. I’ve written and re-written the ending so many times until, in the end, I knew there could be no happily ever after. “Because you showed me that life can be ugly and messy, Cayson, that’s why.”

Yeah, Cayson Razor has shown me that life and love can be ugly. That no matter how much I wanted a happily ever after for the characters and myself, it just wasn’t possible.

“Look, Cayson, that last day with you was amazing. I felt connected to you like I’ve never felt with anyone, but it also obliterated my heart.”

Cayson takes several steps toward me but then stops when my body goes taut with apprehension.

“I was embarrassed when everyone came back to the bus, and yes, I didn’t want them to know that I was so foolish to sleep with you, but I never expected to experience the intense loneliness I felt the minute you walked out the door.”

I watch as Cayson’s Adam's apple lifts and drops in his throat before he hangs his head. Tears well in my eyes and begin to drop down my face as I continue.

“I cried so hard
