Chapter 629

• He felt her looking his way as he hauled off his belt and got out of the car. Stalking far away from it and leaving the door wide open, walking to the cliff edge to try to regain some control over the huge swarm of painful emotions consuming him right now. For a second, he had the urge to jump off the fucking cliff so it would stop. He dragged in a few deep breaths to cool his jets and simmer his mood until he had control once more.
• His pain dulled down as sheer anger overtook him, anger that she would be this way about last night. Anger that despite knowing it would turn out this way, he had still gone down this fucking route. Anger that he hadn’t just left it alone and enjoyed a day on the beach with her doing anything except this shit. He was a fucking moron.
• Calmer, he turned back and slid into the car once more, swallowing it down, breathing hard.
