The fucker’s eyes got all teary Kyler could’ve leveled him simply for that “If you love her, honestly care for her, then you’ll realize that she deserves better than you She has a good thing going for her in Vegas Do you honestly want to cause her more pain than you’ve already caused?”

Rory’s mouth parted, but Kyler interjected, “She’s mine now I have no idea how much clearer to make that” He leaned in across the table and heard the snarl in his voice “The option for you to take her back to Savannah isn’t an option anyardless, she has a soft spot in her heart for you and thinks you’re not this horrible piece of shit that I know you are”

“Kyler,” Saarned

His gaze flicked to Sawyer, who hadn’t moved off the wall but raised his eyebrows Kyler clenched his jaw, controlling his voice “Ella is staying withleft for her in Savannah, and she certainly does not want to be with you” He tapped his finger against the paper “Sign it and let her move on with her life”

Whatever Rory had seen in Kyler’s expression he must’ve taken seriously, since his shoulders slumped “Is that what she wants?”

“What she wants is no longer your concern,” Kyler retorted “Her h for you to realize the relationship is over You cannot possibly be that stupid” He drew in a long breath, then released it slowly “I don’t knohat you’re hung up on, but it’s done Over Now that I know of the restraining order, believe et you arrested Do not contact her Do not come anywhere near her Are we clear?”

Rory held his gaze, then, like the coward he was, he hung his head “Yeah We’re clear”

Kyler leaned away, staring at the piece of shit He’d seen too s with their lives, regardless of the odds There was no justification to think it was okay to act like a coh times in their lives

Rory stared at the envelope before he removed the papers His hand shook as he picked up the pen and signed the docuood woman”

Kyler’s fists clenched as he rose fro to unbearable levels He noticed Sawyer stepping in closer to hi into Rory “If beating those words fro mouth wouldn’t make me a man like you, that would be in your foreseeable future”

He brought his face within inches of Rory’s, noticing Sawyer move just a bit closer, then he added, “A et to ain, in any fashion whatsoever And you certainly don’t need to tell o to all measures to keep her safe”

Grabbing up the papers, he glanced to Sawyer, who had taken a step back and relaxed his posture “Get Maggie to call her friend in Savannah and get him on a plane”

Sawyer raised her brows in surprise “Are you sure?”

Not process the paperwork for breaking the protection order? the question rang out between them

“No, I’ Rory a second look He didn’t deserve it He deserved to be ignored and feel small, like he’d done to Ella “But that’s what Ella would want”
