Chapter 18One week laterSadie WildePOV“Why don’t we go out for a couple of drinks? We haven’t been out in forever.” Tia says over dinner.I shrug my shoulders. I wasn’t really in the mood, I can finally return to work tomorrow and Beckett can finally stop avoiding me, he hasn’t returned a single one of my calls or messages.“Come on, don’t be such a party pooper.” She pouts.Dante kisses her lips, and she smiles at him.I’m kind of annoyed with them right now, especially since it seems Beck is going to say no to me. They’re acting all lovey dovey, before this wouldn’t annoy me but for some reason its ticking me off.I change the subject and ask Dante about what’s happening at the Station. He tells me everything is going well, the guys are working doubles, so they always have one of them on the ambulance because of what happened to us.“Chief says they’re trying to work on a system to stop hijackings, or a better system that alerts police when an ambulance vans GPS goes offline.” D

So here I am standing in front of her apartment once more, one week later.I ring her doorbell.She opens her door happily and hugs me again like she did when I saw her last week.She lets me in, and I go to sit on the sofa. She was watching Naruto. “You can watch this finished if you want. We can talk after.” I tell her.She shakes her head. “I’ll watch it finished after we’re done talking.” She says.I nod. “Okay…” I hide my smile when I see her anxiously tapping her foot watching me.“So have you thought about it?” she asksI nod. “I have…”She narrows her eyes at me. “And what do you think?” she asks“We can start sleeping together again, but I have some conditions we need to follow…” I tell her.She frowns. “Why do we need conditions? What is this some type of contract relationship?” she asksI
Chapter 20 Sadie Wilde POV FLASHBACK “Come on this is crazy Hunter let me go” I try to reason with him. he has locked all the doors of the house, I’m stuck here. He scoffs and crosses his arms. “I do not believe you. As soon as I unlock that door you’ll run for the hills, and I’ll never see you again” Hunter looks at me with mistrust. He has every reason not to trust me. As soon as he unlocks that door I’m moving in with Tia and I plan to never see him again. “Hunter…” I try again. Hunter has lost his damn mind, he tried to kill me and him when I broke up with him while we were driving home. He cheated and my only crime was to trust him now his locked me in our old apartment when I tried to get the last of my things. “Hunter if your bosses find out about this you’ll lose your job, come on be reasonable…” He glares at me. “Shut up. Do not forget I have a gun.” He reminds me. “I know you don’t believe me but I love you I do, just come Hunter unlock the doors, I’ll do anyt
Chapter 21 Third Person POV Sadie walks into her apartment after her run. She places her keys in the tray, she sees the key she gave Beckett there as well. she could not help but smile, she was excited to see him. Today was one of those days, so she needed a little down time, watching a couple of movies with Beck eating take out sounded like the best thing in the world. Especially after last night’s disaster. She had no idea what she did wrong, but Beck looked upset. She tried sending him a few text messages last, but he only responded to those later that night. He did say he was going to have dinner with his parents but she didn’t think it would go on until ten in the night. Then she remembered all this brothers and him were all big, so they must eat as much as Beck did. Beck ate a lot, he worked out before and after every shift, he cared about his body but he burnt way too many calories if you asked me… She thought to herself. She could not imagine Beckett even bigger. His brot
Chapter 23 Beckett King POV It is a late Sunday afternoon, Damon took my mother and Jessica to the grocery store to get a few things. Axel took Anna God knows where. I have no idea how Damon could trust Axel with Anna; I wouldn’t trust that child with my Pinky toe. Anyway it leaves my father and I alone in the house which is rare in itself. I walk down to the living room, I wanted to speak to my father, rather ask the old man’s advice. The last time I asked my old man’s advice was when Damon convinced me my balls was going to explode because they seemed bigger. My father first laughed at me before he beat Damon for messing with his little brother. After that I quickly realized I preferred asking advice from my older brother than my father. but lately my older brother has been acting like his on his period. One would think he was the pregnant one. I sit beside my father, the old man grunts but says nothing, I switch on the hockey game. My dad continues to read his newspaper. The
Chapter 24Sadie WildePOVIt was Monday morning, I was at work, yesterday Beckett took care of me, when I was plagued by period pain, I know his naturally sweet but, Beck has been acting unnaturally sweet recently. He is kissing me on my shoulder when we wake up in bed together, buying flowers, taking care of me when I’m on my period, if I’m not mistaken not even boyfriends and husbands do that.But when I really think about it, it’s just who Beck is, his momma raised him right. Maybe that’s how his mother taught him to treat all woman. Its so different to how I grew up, my father and mother loved each other but my mother and father barely talks to each other, my father was the cook in the house, my mother is a defense attorney so she spends most of her time and work, my father is a high school science teacher, so growing up my father was the person Vance and I went to for advice, or when we were having trouble with something.I’m sitting outside across the street from the station, t
Chapter 25Sadie WildePOV“I’m sorry about earlier…” Tia apologizes.I roll my eyes. “I know what I said upset you, don’t worry I’m not upset about that.” I wave her off.“This place kind of gives me the creeps…” Tia says softly.I nod, Gracie’s apartment seems to be on the weird side of town, I’ve never even been on this side before.“What’s up with you, you’ve been moody for a while now.” Tia asks.“It’s Beck, his been acting weird and it’s made me angry, and I don’t know why. I have no idea why I’m even angry. It’s what I wanted but the thought of him going out partying with his brother pisses me off for some reason.She stops walking and looks over at me. “So, you’re mad because he is going to spend time with this brother tonight even though you’re not going to be home and partying yourself?” she’s looking at me with a scrutinizing look on her face.“Yes, but I’m not going to be meeting with other guys.” I glare at the stairs ahead of me.She chuckles. “Why are you getting mad? I
Chapter 26Beckett KingPOVI watch Sadie laying head under her pillow, mumbling to herself. She’s been incoherent since she came home pass two this morning, it took all of my energy to get her to bed. She tried hitting on me, calling me the tall sexy man. She took my hair out of my hair tie saying she loved my hair done. She tried seducing me when she couldn’t even walk straight or on her own. The most hilarious this was when she tried stripping for me, but tripping over her own two feet and nearly knocking her own teeth out.I have no idea what the fuck she drank at Gracie’s place but she smelt like a damn bar. I’ve seen Sadie drunk but this wasn’t drunk this was beyond wasted.“Come on get up, we got to get going…” I tell her.She mumbles some more. I shake my head. I had a date planned for us, it was around six in the evening, she’s slept the entire day and I let her.She slowly gets out from under the covers and pillow. “I’m telling you, she found out about us fucking and now she
