When There Is Nothing Left But Love

Emery spoke our minds though. “You cheated on me, but you’re asking me to date you again for a stupid excuse like that? And you want me to forgive my would-be killer, and you want that woman to deliver your baby? So I don’t even have a say in that? Sometimes I wonder if we’ve not dated long enough, Hunter. You don’t seem to understand me at all. What makes you think you can tell me what to do?”

At that point, even Emery thought it was pointless talking to him. She shook her head in disdain. “Get out. Before I change my mind about sparing you.”

Hunter’s face fell as she glared at Emery intently. But then he remembered how terrifying an angry Emery was, so he shot up. “I’m Xavier’s father. Nothing can change that. I’m bowing my head here so everyone can live in peace, but you burned that bridge, Emery. You’re gonna get what’s coming for you.”

Hunter frowned, but he couldn’t say anything, so he stormed out. I looked in his direction, then I realized there was a sports car at the gates. “Can I borrow one of your cars?”
