Was it so fucking wrong that he wanted a littleback, he knew he had been the third fro the chance on this relationship was soret, but he couldn’t help but feel there was so

He loved Sierra Loved her to the point of distraction He wanted to hold her every second of every day He loved seeing her sleepy, sexy face everywhen he woke up And his heart tu Hannah

Then there was Luke The man held a part of him that Cole would never be able to explain even to himself He had been in love with Luke for years, yet he had kept it to himself because Luke hadn’t been ready to accept the fact that he wanted so to

Cole feared that he longed for soetting it now With Sierra, he didn’t question how she felt about hi this a threesoh they were separate couples Luke still held himself back a little and Cole felt it He didn’t like it, but he felt it nonetheless

Grabbing his phone and the so into the hotel The reservations were made, and he just needed to check in Then maybe he could sleep for a while He wouldn’t see Jake or Nate until to down early

Maybe he could go by and see Travis and check out what they’d done on the resort thus far He kneas co quickly Travis Walker wasn’t aon top of the contractors, ensuring they were doing things the way he wanted Even though Travis was the type of lad he didn’t work for him He was pretty sure he wouldn’t be able to contain his temper quite as well as he usually did Which even he would admit was less and less these days

Once inside, he checked in, trying to be polite to the pleasant young woman who seemed to be starved for attention He wasn’t in the et through the ten minutes it took for her to handle the process As he made his way up to his room on the third floor so he wouldn’t have the interruption of anyone being above hiesture et away fro up on Luke, but the man’s threats had finally pushed hiry that he disappeared without a word, a decision he still questioned but realized it was too late to change the outco entirely different for Luke to threaten to call Alex He couldn’t help but feel like a recalcitrant child when Luke acted like that and Cole was as far fro a child as anyone possibly could be

Once inside the less than spectacular hotel roo on the floor by the bed and then collapsed on the king sized bed that filled up ht back to what had gotten hi the drive down, he’d accepted the fact that he overreacted by disappearing in the ht He’d been upset, he wouldn’t deny it At least not to himself

The fact that Sierra and Luke were both so i a little lonely Not that he’d , but he knew if he didn’t walk out the door, he’d onlythat Sierra didn’t want to co the baby had been a knife wound to his heart that still throbbed

He understood At least he tried to

They didn’t need to be traipsing across the state with a twoto Austin He ht’ve told Alex that he was done, but he couldn’t leave theIt wasn’t in his nature He would handle this last assignure out what to do next

He knehat he wanted to do Now he just had to wonder whether the offer was still on the table
