CHAPTER TWELVE

IT was time…

The flowers were gathered. Yellow flowers for the lovely angel. Pretty and perfect.

The tears threatened. But there was time for tears later. Tears mustn’t mar their day together, after all. Later. After their special day. They’d be together all day—a day of joy. After that, there would be time for tears.

“HI, sweetheart.”

Taylor’s phone had been silent that morning. So far. Still, he woke early and made his sojourn to the cemetery where Anna rested along with his parents. The daisies, bright and cheerful, wouldn’t last long, but they were her favorite. She’d get nothing else from him.

Sitting by her monument, he stared down at the ground.

He’d spent too many days like this. Holding vigil at the foot of the marble angel and wondering. Wondering, yet dreading what would happen if he ever found out. Would it break him, knowing what happened?

She was gone, he knew. He knew it in his soul.

Maybe that was why he’d never brought anybody out here. Wasn’t like he couldn’t. Wasn’t like he didn’t have the resources. Hell, he had somebody here now…

His gut wrenched. No. Just—no.

Still, with a hand that shook, he reached into his pocket and pulled out that golden chain. Stared at it.

There was a reason Dez was here. Why she was still here—in this town. Deep inside, in a place he didn’t want to look at, he was starting to suspect those connections were a lot more complicated than he wanted to think about.

But he wasn’t going to look at any of that just yet. Not today. Definitely not today.
