Turning to our sister, he ordered, “Call him, Harley.”
That intense gaze swung back to Bridget.“Make sure she does.”
“I will,” Bridge promised.
I tried to follow Hawkley out the door, but my feet remained planted.
Bridge locked eyes with Harley.“Your big brother is intense.”
I guffawed, relief hitting me in waves.He always was a bossy fuck.
Harley laughed.“He is.”
“Noelle’s so sunny…” Bridge’s voice trailed off.
Harley smirked.“She loves a good monster romance.”
The pull came hard and fast, yanking me back so fast my breath stalled in my chest.“Whoa!What was all that about?”I demanded, rubbing my chest.
He grinned and shrugged.“It’s over.You did it.”
“Did what?”
I apologized to Hawk and Noelle.
Said goodbye to Max and Hawk.
Stopped Noelle from falling into the river.
Screamed my pain into the void with Harley, before saying goodbye to her as well.
Attended a rockin’ wedding.
And arranged a ride.
Other than the ride, it didn’t seem like much.
“How do you feel?”
I looked inward.I wasn’t the fuck-up I believed myself to be.I made a mistake, a mistake anyone might have made.And if it wasn’t for a tragic accident, I would have redeemed it.
A thousand times over, I would have redeemed it.
But I helped put them on the path to healing.
I got to say goodbye and help them move on.
I said sorry.
“I don’t think I’m mad at myself anymore.”
“That’s good,” He murmured.
I turned to face Him.“I have to ask, all this, was it for them?Or for me?”
“Why can’t it be both?”
I nodded.“I don’t get to see the end results?”
