The Divorce Prescription

Chapter 12

Carly's call came through, and Adam snapped back to reality. At that moment, he was a mess. His clothes were damp, his body marked with kisses from a woman, and his breathing still unsteady.

"Hey, Carly," he greeted, trying to sound composed despite the chaos around him. The pulsing beat of metal music echoed in the background.
