Chapter 0368

Prologue.

Gabe.

I sit in my office, my mind reeling. Worry for my brother consumes me day and night. It’s been a couple of months since everything went south with Emma and since he informed us that he married Ava because he’d gotten her pregnant.

Since then, since he lost Emma, he hasn’t been the same. It’s like something inside him broke. Like he was only half living. Travis told me that Emma wasn’t doing any better, but as much as I treasure her, she wasn’t my main concern. My loyalties will always lie with Rowan, no matter what he did.

I pull my drawer open and retrieve a packet of cigarettes. Lighting one up, I drag it in, feeling myself calm down just a little bit. I know it’s a bad habit, but I just can’t stop. Not when it’s the only thing apart from sex that is able to make me relax.

Standing up from my chair, I eye my office. I was interning at our family’s company. It’s been there for generations and has always been run by the men in our family.

Once, there was hope when my mom got pregnant after Rowan and me, but she miscarried at five months. The baby had been a girl.
