Chapter 7

Stone

Last night, I’d used Vanessa hard. She deserved better than to take all my pent-up frustrations as rough sex. Part of me still felt the five times I’d drilled into her. No woman had ever come close to fulfilling me like she could.

In the morning, I’d driven to survey my stepmother’s house, but Emily was already walking on the street. I stepped out of the car and called to her, “Emily?”

“She lied to me.” Emily hugged me. “She said she’d drop charges against you if I came home with her.”

“I’m fine.” I massaged the back of her head. “Never believe Lana. You should have waited to see the cops believed everything we said.”

She let me go and jumped into the car. “I was scared, but I ran out the door first thing in the morning. I wanted to find you.”

“Let’s go.”

I quickly texted Vanessa: I have my sister.

Thought bubbles kept me there, even though Emily closed her eyes like she needed to sleep. Vanessa then wrote back: I’ll get the others back to the hotel.

I want to see you, I wrote fast then started the engine.

She responded quickly: I’m here.

I tucked my phone into my pocket then headed back to the hotel.

Halfway through the drive, Emily woke up and asked, “So you and Vanessa again?”

“She’s engaged,” I said. As Emily gazed out the window, I added, “I’m just glad you’re safe, Emily.”

This time, she turned to me and smiled. “I have a great big brother.”

Great meant I was solely focused on her and that she would never have to return to Lana’s house. And this time, I had a lawyer to ensure Lana never bothered either of us. When she kicked me out, I’d been weak and an emotional wreck after coming home from my father’s funeral. I’d do better for Emily. For now, I shook my head to clear my mind, but we made it across the bridge and back to the center of the city, where our hotel was, as I said, “No, but I’m trying here.”

She pushed her hair behind her ear. “I still lost all my money to pay for expenses at Austen.”

We drove onto streets that I never would have thought I could afford when I was a kid. “It will be my pleasure to ensure you have what you need.”

As I drove toward the front door of the hotel, she said, “I had plans for years to be independent and start college.”

I stopped for the valet. The good part of wrestling professionally was I had more money than our father ever had, though he’d worked all our lives. And unlike most of my colleagues, I’d been trained to never spend unless I needed to, so splurging on Emily was easy.

“You still are. I’m training for the Olympics, and I have my professional wrestling job, so I can’t visit as much as I’d like.”

I tossed the keys to the valet and walked my sister inside. In the lobby, I saw Vanessa in jeans I’d bought and had delivered to the room.
