Worn Me Down (Playing With Fire, #3) - Plot & Excerpts
I shouldn’t have been such an asshole, but she needed to know where I stood on things. She needed to understand that whatever was going on between us couldn’t be permanent. The way she glares at me whenever we’re in the same room leads me to believe she got the message loud and clear. I wish I could be that person for her. More than anything I wish things were different, but they’re not. I don’t have happy childhood memories to pass on to a kid and there can never be family vacations or promises of togetherness over the holidays because I never know when I’m going to be out of the country. I just have to keep reminding myself what I told Gwen yesterday – I am not that person. Walking out into the living room, I see Gwen pull her keys out of her purse and head towards the door. “Where the hell are you going?” I demand. She stops and turns around. “Work. I have the meeting with Mrs. Anderson to show her the pictures of her husband at the motel.” When she turns around and opens the door, I race up behind her, smacking my hand against the wood and slamming it closed.
