I couldn’t sleep after the fight with Lori.

She’d practically doused me with cold water after her verbal smack around the face, and by the time I’d gotten home, my cock had woken up and was hard again. If I had been myself and Lori had been any other woman, I would have pushed a little harder until she snapped and we’d ended up tangled together. Me inside her until the sun came up.

But she was Lori…whatever that meant.

The next day, I still wasn’t over it, so I hit the gym in my apartment building instead of going to Pulse. Because avoiding Ash Fuller at a time like this was in the best interests of public safety. He liked to shake the hornet’s nest, and today, he’d get stung with my fist in his face. I knew a big fucking ‘I told you so’ would be the first thing he said.

I ran on the treadmill, upping the speed when my mind didn’t clear.

I cycled at full tilt, upping the tension when I couldn’t focus.

I lifted weights, but it only made my thoughts tumble.

Finally, I belted the shit out of a punching bag until I felt like dropping.

I was doing Lori a favor by getting out now. She’d been hurt enough. I didn’t have anything to offer except more heartache. Sickness and death was what reigned in the McBride household. Nobody wanted to deal with that, no matter what they said to the contrary. Nobody wanted to inherit a guy who might have hereditary cancer and didn’t have the chops to go get tested.

The problem was they were all excuses to get out of doing things the hard way. Because pursuing Lori would be an uphill climb. The view would be worth it once we reached the summit, but the journey might take too much out of us before we even reached base camp.

I had to stay the course.

It was the only thing within my grasp in the typhoon that was my life.
