Fearless

KREW

I couldn’t sleep. I wanted to smash every single piece of furniture in sight right now. I paced back and forth. My mind was still whirling. I was just so furious, hurt, enraged that River left like as easy as that—she didn’t care. What she said might be right after all. Why would she care anyway? It was me who concocted and considered the idea of making her bait to that motherfucker.

My phone rang. It was Conner.

/"Where is she?/" My greeting was a bark.

/"She went thermonuclear. I swear your woman is scary when she’s pissed./" He laughed, outraged, and admired her at the same time. River never ceased to amaze me. I knew she could be scarier when she wanted to. I was a fucking bulldozer, but she’d never been intimidated by me.

/"Where is she now?/" My voice was thick when I asked again. Calling River my woman made me feel proud, but I knew the reality— she left me.
