Without wasting time, I cross the soft carpet and head out of my office. I walk down the
hallway, heading
towards Gabe’s office.
“Is my brother in?” I ask his secretary once I get to his side of the floor.
We were the only board member’s that were on this floor. Mainly because we retained the
highest
percentage of shares along with my father, though he is now retired.
“Yes, Sir. He’s still in.”
I nod at her and walk into my brother’s office after noting that this was yet a new
secretary. Gabe went
through them at an alarming rate. I blame it on the fact that he is still a notorious playboy.
He sleeps with
them, and once they start getting attached, he fires them.
“Rowan…”
“What happened to the other one?” I ask, knowing that I don’t need to elaborate. “This is
the fourth
secretary you’ve hired this month.”

after a day or
two of S**,” he grins, a grin that I know very well he uses to draw women into his F***ing
web.
Shaking my head, I stare at my brother, wondering if there exists a woman who can
actually tame him.”
You really should stop mixing business with pleasure.”
“Nah… Where is the fun in that?” He shrugs, and I sigh, knowing that he won’t stop
sleeping with every
F***ing secretary he hires.
At least he respected my decision when I told him my secretary was out of limit. The last
thing I wanted
or needed was to search for new ones because my brother can’t keep his dick in his pants.
“So, what brought you to my office?”
“I don’t really feel like going home,” I answer, avoiding his gaze.
“Color me shocked… Why? I thought things were going great with Ava.”
“They are…” I leave the sentence hanging.
Well, they were, that is, until she got back from visiting Ethan in prison. I don’t know what
happened or
what he told her, but Avá has been eyeing me suspiciously since then. Every time I do
something, I say
something, k*ss her, hold her, or even do the smallest of things. Suspicion mars her eyes,

“I think Ethan may have said something to her; she’s been off lately. It started after she
went to see Ethan
about a week ago. Or maybe something happened between them, and she’s wondering
what the hell
she’s doing with me when there is Ethan.”
“She loves you.” Gabe tries assuring me, but it doesn’t work.
“But for how long? And what happens when she regains her memories and realizes that
she killed and
buried her love for me a long time ago?”
My insecurities are showing, but I don’t care. In addition to worrying about her safety, I
worry about the
day that she’ll regain her memories. I’m so F***ing afraid of admitting that losing her
scares me to death.
This past month and a half has been F***ing amazing. I never thought that Ava could be
what I wanted.
What I needed. I was wrong. She F***ing lights up my world in a way I never thought
possible, making me

I want everything with her. Everything I denied myself and her when we were married. I

“You’re overreacting. I’m sure nothing is wrong.” He assures me firmly.
I sigh, defeated and tired. “If you think that’s the case, why don’t you come home for
dinner then? You can
see for yourself that I am not overreacting, as you put it.”
“Fine”
I smile as we both rise up. I just hope that Ava won’t be angry that I invited Gabe. After all,
