Chapter 24

Back at the hotel, Gage was hating who he was even more. He went into the dark hotel room feeling emptier than the weeks after he found his ex-wife in bed with another man. The woman he devoted his life to laughing at him as he begged Summer to reconsider. All he ever wanted was to have a family with a wife and kids. After his divorce, he vowed to never fall in love again.
Gage slammed the hotel room door shut in a fit of rage, almost breaking it off the hinges. He had been weak, allowing Isis to open his heart again. He was letting her in, and it was going to destroy him all over again. He couldn’t go back to being the same pathetic man he once was. Summer used the same loving nature he once prided himself on against him over and over. His divorce only proved to him he had been less than a man by letting his softer side go free. He would not allow himself to be weak.
With a loud growl, he threw a chair against the mirror on the wall, shattering it.
