Jay, who had thought she had none left to give, felt the tears fall again. “I want to tell you about her—about us.”

“And I want to hear. But not until you’ve taken a hot shower and gotten out of those wet clothes.”

Jay let the hot spray wash over her body. She leaned her head against the wall. Could she talk about Kate? She wasn’t sure. Maybe talking about her would make it hurt less. She knew that wasn’t true—nothing would take away the pain. But Terri deserved to know and so did Trystan.

“A little.”

“Can I get you anything?”

“No, thanks. I want to talk to you about Kate.” Jay stumbled over the name.

Terri took a deep breath, seemingly bracing herself for what was to come. “Before you do, I have a confession to make.”

“What is it?” Alexa noticed Terri’s agitation and was further shocked to see tears on her lashes. She’d never seen Terri cry.

“I don’t know if you can ever forgive me.”

“Forgive you? For what?” Alexa asked, confused.

“I-I made an assumption that turned out to be very wrong.”

“We all make mistakes.”

“You don’t understand,” Terri said, looking up at Jay with wounded eyes. “When I first heard about the accident, the death of the press secretary’s lover was all people talked about. But I was busy with your The Value of Valor
