We were different
“I need to be inside you,” I whispered in between kisses
I unbuckledher panties down I gripped onto the back of her thigh, placing it on round effortlessly,free She still didn’t say a word
“I love you… I love you so o back to rehab Whatever it takes, baby”
Caging her in withinto her pussy In one swifthitched
She cried out not saying a word
I gripped onto her thigh again, lifting it higher to hold her in place I thrust in and out, groaning in approval Fucking her slow like she loved
“Does that feel good, baby?”
Every thrust inside her, she felt the her each ti ue as it entwined with hers Savoring the velvety feel ofhers I pushed in and out of her before I pulled away needing to look into her eyes
I knew Briggs’ body better than she did My fingers moved to her clit and she let out a softwith each stroke Her pussy clamped down onto ainst the wall and her ars wrapped around my torso
I fucked her harder and withas fast asthat was left inside ofher to understand my shame and remorse
“Fuck, you feel good,” I growled out “Come on my cock, baby Please let me feel you come for me”
She ht along with her I held her in my arms for what felt like hours, but I knew it had only been round, she i like she was in shock or so
“Daisy?” I grabbed her chin and she roughly jerked it away froh? Did I hurt you?”
She shut her eyes, letting tears strea while erelove
“Fuck… baby I’ hurt you”
She instantly opened her eyes, and for the first ti back at me
My girl was gone
She narrowed her eyes ather head she scoffed out, “All you do is hurtdo”
I jerked back from the impact of her words
“Congratulations, you got what you wanted I gave into you Your touch Your lies Your ain You knoorkplayed with I can’t do this anyht there… what just happened is how easily I lose allwhen it comes to you”
I watched her grab her suitcase off the floor and walk to the door, taking ainst the door like it killed her to be leaving me
Asme to watch
At the last second she turned around and for a second, I thoughtback to me
“You’re addicted to drugs, Austin” She shrugged, her voice breaking “And I’m addicted to you”
Looking deep into my eyes she spoke with conviction,
“And our love is just as fucking toxic”
Chapter 37
Briggs
“How does that make you feel?”
“I hate it when you say that, Dr Holden”
“And yet after sixto see me, you still know I have to say it,” my therapist chuckled
Two days a week I sat on a comfortable leather sofa and pouredand everything Sometimes she just listened, and other tiure out the root of my problems and how to help me move on
It had been six months since I left Austin Six painfulon ht I had nowhere else to go Before I even realized what I was doing and where I was, a wo woman I had never seen before now
“Jesus Christ, howti door,” Uncle Alejandro roared
“How many ti want?” she snapped back
My eyes widened in disbelief that so I’d never once seen a woh I kneent through pussy like they were nothing I’d heard enough stories, but I’d never witnessed that side of him
The door opened wider He cocked his head to the side when he saw ine what he thought
“Hey,” I greeted, fu what else to say
He turned back toward the girl, who looked like she could be younger than me
“Leave us,” he simply ordered
She frowned, peering back and forth between us, even more confused than I was She left
“You’re kind of a dick”
“So I’ve been told, but I’”
“You knohy I’ that has been going on intabs oncare” I walked past hiure out what I’uest bedroom, okay? You won’t even know I’ht? You were hardly there for that too”
He arched an eyebrow “So this is a pleasant visit, I see Perhaps we can bla time”
I rolled my eyes at his asshole remarks
“You knohere your bedroo as you’re sharing such fond fucking memories from your childhood”
“My bedroom? You kept my room?” I asked, shocked as shit “Who are you?”
“Your uncle The only family you have, peladita”
“It makes me feel confused Austin is the only man I’ve ever known outside of my uncle He was le day, but I have so hs that hatred soht was the right thing to do at that time”
“Do you think he would have stayed in recovery if you had kept the baby?”
I shook my head no “If you would have asked me that back then I probably would have said yes, but now after everything that’s happened I don’t think he would have stayed in recovery So would have happened to ”
“Do you think the abortion played as a downfall in his addiction?”
“I know it did” I bowedwith the sea I felt responsible for some of his demons The choices I made that not only affected me but him too”
“That’s nors To feel the way you do Have you spoken to him?”
“You know I haven’t”
“Do you kno he’s doing?”
“See, that’s the worst part I lost his friends and family too I haven’t been back to Oak Island since I left I don’t know if he’s in recovery I don’t know anything anymore”
“Is he still calling you?”
“Every day”
r />
“Are you still listening to thethe texts?”
“Not as , but I can’t help the guilt I feel I know you keep telling me that it wasn’t my fault that he became an addict In my mind that makes sense, but in my heart, Doctor,” I placed my hand on my chest, “it doesn’t feel that way”
“Austin is an addict, Briggs He would have become one with or without you Do you understand that?”
I nodded
“Family members, especially partners, they always feel responsible no matter what His problems became your problems, his demons became your demons, and his addiction became your burden It would have killed you, had you stayed Youto get any better with you there Addicts need consequences If they don’t have any then ould they change? I’ was his rock bottom, but eventually, he will find one They always do It’s just whether he will be alive when it happens”
I grimaced I couldn’t help it
“I know that’s hard for you to hear But in situations like these, it beco yours in the process Addicts die every day, Briggs It’s the nature of the beast If he doesn’t want to stay clean, then he won’t Bottom line”
