Chapter Fourteen

Thursday morning brought a cloudy day, and fluttered excitement in Ella’s stomach about tomorrow night. Standing in her kitchen, anticipation tickled over her at the idea of her first BDSM scene. The unknown was definitely part of the appeal to the lifestyle—not knowing what kinky things Kyler had planned left her in a constant state of arousal.

With warmth spreading out between her thighs, she grabbed her purse off the kitchen counter. As she reached for her cell phone, the sharp ring cut through the silence. Her heart leapt into her throat, but as she read the call display, seeing that it was from her lawyer and not Rory, she blew out a long breath.

She hit the answer button and raised the phone to her ear. “Hello.”

“Good morning, Ella, this is Derek Nelson,” her lawyer said in his rich Southern drawl. “I’m sorry to call you this early, but I’ve been stuck in court and wanted to make sure I called after receiving your e-mail.”

Ella sighed in utter relief. “I’m so happy that you called.”

She’d known Derek from high school, so he wasn’t a stranger. In fact, Derek was likely her only friend left in Savannah, which was a damn depressing thought. He was nothing more to her than her lawyer.

Derek said in a tight voice, “I apologize for not calling sooner. I had cell phone issues and didn’t get your e-mail until this morning, and when I got your telephone message, it didn’t sound urgent. Are you all right?”

“Yes, I’m fine,” she replied, knowing deep down that wasn’t true. “Rory hasn’t made contact since Monday, but please tell me things are moving along with the divorce.”

Derek hesitated. “First, if Rory contacts you again, call the police there in Vegas. He’s under a restraining order and is breaking it. We want to ensure you are safe. Understood?”

“Yes,” she lied, leaning a hip against the counter. The last thing she wanted to do was call the police. Kyler would learn about Rory, and that was shit she didn’t want to follow her or to have to explain. Deep down, she knew she should tell Kyler that she was still married, but she decided her past was hers.

In her heart, she was long divorced, and she didn’t have an ounce of love left for Rory.

Once the divorce was finalized, she’d tell Kyler that she was once married. Right now it was too raw and still very real. “But about the divorce, please tell me you’ve gotten somewhere with this. It’s been nearly six months since we served him.” With uncontested papers that she knew Rory still had, but had refused to sign. He’d gotten himself a good lawyer. That’s when things became complicated. “I need this to all go away. ASAP.”

Derek made a disgruntled noise. “I’m afraid his lawyer has been dragging his feet. As you know, the judge granted Rory the time via mediation to get into treatment and counseling.” He paused and then added with a firmer voice, “However, since
