One week. I could do this.

But what I couldn’t do is tell him the truth, even if it felt like I should.

He might be a sweet, caring, and understanding guy, but it was clear he and his family were close, and if I told him even a fraction of the truth, he’d have more questions for me, and before long, it’d be clear that I’d intended to harm him and his family. I had wanted vengeance, and there was no getting around that little fact, no matter what our feelings were for each other.

If I was going to spend this week with him, then I’d have to ignore my reality and embrace the person I was pretending to be. It was that, or tell him the truth and walk away from the only happiness I’d had in years. Though I knew that was what I should do, I was too weak to follow through with what was right, even though it’d only make matters worse when he finally found out the truth.

But there was one more thing. If I didn’t get to a pharmacy for the morning-after pill, there was a good chance I’d be taking a little part of Locke along with me when I finally did leave. Because it was clear that safe sex was nowhere on anyone’s radar once we started kissing each other, and eventually, nature was going to take over, and I was going to end up pregnant.

Yet the thought of having a baby to love…of having a renewed sense of hope… Part of me wanted to simply throw caution to the wind and put things in fate’s hands.

I knew a baby would fill a huge void in my life, and it’d help to heal my wounds. Except that Locke still didn’t know the truth about me, and at the end of a week, I’d be walking away and never seeing him again—with or without his child.

With the fire going, he crossed to my side and pulled me into his arms, making it impossible for me to pull away from the comfort only he seemed to be able to give me. “How are you doing, love?”

I shrugged off my worries and told myself that I was going to take this one week to just be happy—something I hadn’t been in a very long time. And after that, I’d deal with whatever came my way, even if there was a good chance I might lose Locke once he knew the truth. For once, I was going to stop worrying about everything.

I managed a smile and slipped my arms around his neck, leaning into his muscular body as I went up onto the tips of my toes to give him a kiss. “I’m doing better. So…what do you have planned for our week together?”

The worry that had lined his face with tension finally disappeared, his eyes alight with mischief as he smiled against my lips. “I’m tempted to drag you to bed and spend the week making you come repeatedly, but I suppose we’ll have to get out of the house at some point.
