Chapter Thirteen

Rory

ON AUTOPILOT, I LEFT MY father’s office and got back in Raven’s car. Once I was behind the wheel, I just sat there, staring off into space as the realization I was going to lose everything hit me squarely in the chest.

If my father had threatened me, I would have just laughed in his face and walked away. Instead, he’d threatened the one person in the world I couldn’t breathe without. I couldn’t let him do that to Matt, I had to protect him.

I’d told my father that I would do what he wanted, but that I had to break it off with Matt in person. If I didn’t, he wouldn’t accept it, and even if I did go back to my father’s house, he would find a way to get to me. Dad hadn’t been happy about it, but he knew he had me right where he wanted me, so he had given in.

Swallowing around the tightness in my throat, I finally pulled into traffic and headed back toward the clubhouse. A few blocks later, I saw Gracie standing on the sidewalk outside of Mr. Jenkins’s office with Hawk, and I remembered that I had to deal with the paperwork for my mother’s bequest to me.

I parked Raven’s car right in front of where they were standing, causing them both to turn their heads. Hawk frowned, thinking it was his sister, and moved over to open my door. “Everything okay?” he asked when he stepped back to let me out.

No, I wanted to sob. Everything is wrong. Everything I love is being pulled from my arms, and I’m helpless to do anything to stop it.

“Mr. Jenkins asked me to sign papers yesterday. I was already in town and decided to go ahead and take care of it now.” My gaze went to Gracie, who gave me a small but warm and welcoming smile. Unfortunately, it didn’t even come close to melting the coldness that seemed to have invaded every one of my organs. “Is he busy? I…I can come back if he is.”

She shook her head. “Even if he is, I can help you.” Standing on tiptoes, she kissed Hawk on the lips. “Be careful, okay? I love you.”

“I’m picking you up and taking you over to see Doc at four. Be ready.”

“I told you I’m fine,” she grumbled.

“You’ve lost too much weight. You’ve been sick, and you refuse to eat. You’re going, woman. End of discussion.”

I turned my eyes away when he bent his head to brush his lips across hers again. That kiss said everything that no words had the ability to. It said that Gracie was his light on cold, dark days. That she was everything sweet and good in his world, and that he would kill anyone or anything that ever tried to take her away from him. It was the kind of kiss Matt had given me countless times, and it broke my heart a little more to see someone else experience it now.
