It's been two days since Jackson’s betrayal. The pain still creeps deeper and deeper into my chest. I’ve gone completely off the grid, and I fully expect someone to break down my door and force me to socialize, take care of myself, or even talk. I don’t know if I have the energy.

The number of text messages, missed calls, and emails that I have gotten is overwhelming. I know my friends are there to help me, but the thought of facing anyone is too much right now. The only message that haunts me is the one from Jackson: “Don’t hide from me, Little Cub. I won’t accept you walking away from me.” He’s still holding out hope, and that scares me.

The doorbell rings, breaking me out of my thoughts. Seamus perks up and walks down the ramp by my bed, spinning at the door, waiting for me to open it. The longer I hesitate, the more the bell rings and a fist pounds on the door. I run through who it could be in my head. Sam and Reva would’ve used the key under the St. Francis statute, Britt would have busted down my door with no hesitation, and any of the club members would just appear like smoke.

Peeking through the peep hole, I see familiar faces that bring joy to my heart. Ellie, Seth, and Jordan. A sigh of relief washes over me. Opening the door, I wrap Ellie in a big hug, which Seth just makes bigger. I mess with Jordan’s hair as he walks by with a pizza in hand. I smile as we part, and I make my way to the couch. Seth looks at me skeptically, surely noting the messy hair and shadowed eyes.

“You wanna talk about it?” he asks.

I shrug. “What’s there to talk about? I let my guard down, started to trust someone I thought could help and come to find out he was sent to manipulate me. What else can I say?” I ramble out. “I feel for him too, like the idiot I am.”

I get up from the couch and head into the kitchen; they need plates and I need Jack.

Seth isn’t buying it. “I heard you let something slip. You neglected to tell him about Aiden, didn’t you?”

I’ve tried not to replay my words in my head, but I can’t help it. Abused and used may have caused some concern, I won’t lie. “It was my story to tell.”

At that moment, Ellie asks me to do her hair, almost like she could sense I needed the distraction. I grab a brush and methodically sweep it through her strands as Seth pipes up.

“Just like you have your story, Tess, he has one too.” Seth looks me directly in the eyes as I loop Ellie’s hair into braids. “Maybe you need to let him tell it. I know your heart is broken, but you may not know the whole truth.”

I sigh. Maybe he’s right, but my mind shakes it away. Jackson had his chance.
