    CHAPTER 1

    JAXON

    IT’S LIKE A BROKEN record playing in my head. The idea that I planned all this time to make him pay, only to be hurting myself now. Sitting here drinking in the dark on my birthday is a fucking sin. I should be celebrating, dancing, letting women fawn over me. Instead, I’m replaying Silvia’s look of confusion, anger, and disappointment. It’s like a knife piercing between my ribs, over and over again.

    My cell starts ringing for the hundredth time today. I’ve been in my penthouse all day. Even when Lori cooked my favorite things, I could only eat a little. Blair, my grandmother, even a few of my clients called to wish me a happy birthday.

    The only thing that will make me happy is to have Silvia back in my arms. Now, I don’t have her, and my plan has to change. Before I’m judged, Nox must still pay, but I can’t use Silvia to seek my revenge. He doesn’t get off that easy; my sister is still gone, and he never even knew how much he hurt her or changed my life.

    I stand, leaving the cell ringing, and walk over to the window, looking out at the sky, wishing I could turn back time. Maybe I can make Silvia understand how I feel about her. The idea of never talking with her, hearing her sassy mouth or making love to her is painful. The bar catches my eye, and I decide to have another drink. As I’m pouring more bourbon, I hear a knock at my door. I set my glass down and quickly open my door, hoping it’s Silvia, but to my surprise it’s Blair.

    Jaxson, you’re not sitting in this place for your birthday. I’ve been calling you, wanting to see you, and you’re not answering.

    I look at her, wondering why I didn’t look out the damn peephole.

    You know, when someone doesn’t answer their cell, that doesn’t mean come to their place, Blair.

    I go back to my drink and take a long sip. Blair marches over and narrows her eyes at me.

    Jax, it’s your birthday, and I’m not sure why you’re home. I’ve been trying to reach you for the last couple of days, I thought you were caught up with your new lady, but I guess you dumped her. She seems a little too happy for my liking.

    You guessed wrong.

    She looks at me, waiting for more of an explanation, but I don’t owe her one. I know being an ass to one of your good friends is stupid, but it looks like I made a stupid decision when I fell for Silvia, so what’s one more stupid thing on my list?

    Jax, please, I can help you. I hate to see you upset like this. I will do anything, and I do mean anything, to help you feel better.

    I sit back in my chair holding my glass, trying to ignore the fact that Blair has just offered herself to me. She doesn’t say it so plainly, but I know her very well, and I’m one hundred percent sure I could fuck her right now. I’m not, though. Blair’s a friend, and that would only make me feel worse.

    Blair, please go away. I’ll call you tomorrow, I plead, hoping she’ll respect my choice and leave.

    She walks over and squats down in front of me, placing her hands on my knees. I ignore her and take another belt of my drink. I don’t want to hurt my friend’s feelings, but she’s not catching the hint.

    Jax, let me help you forget her, nothing has to change between us.

    Who said I want to forget her? Look, don’t embarrass yourself. Turn and walk out the door, before I turn into a real asshole.

    The look I give her is cold. Leading Blair on in any way would be a disaster; I want us to remain friends.

    Ok, I get it. Don’t be angry at me, Jax. Your friendship is important to me. I only wanted to make you feel good for your birthday.

    I remain silent, not because I’m angry at Blair, but I want to be left alone. She stands up, straightens her dress and turns to walk towards the door. I get up to see her out as she approaches the door. I open it, praying for her to leave quietly. So this won’t be so awkward the next time we speak.

    Have a nice night, Blair.

    Thanks, Jax, and happy birthday.

    She walks away, and I close the door. It’s not a happy birthday. This birthday is up in the top five of being a complete fuck-up.

    Shit! I’m 38 years old, and I have no family except my grandmother, and no special lady either. I’m feeling bad, too; my body is starting to catch up with all the non-eating I’ve been doing, today and for the last week. I decide that maybe I should eat some of Lori’s cooking. She went to a lot of trouble to make all my favorites, and the least I can do is show appreciation. I’ve made it through this week because of her and Randall, my driver. They have both been exceptional this week with my attitude, no talking and barely working.

    I’m going to have to pull myself together. I’ve tried to reach out to her, but the number has been changed. She won’t even allow me to get to her penthouse. Logan has been keeping me informed about her at work. He’s not been privy to private conversations she’s having with her best friend, but he does say she doesn’t look happy at all.

    At least I know she hasn’t moved on with her life but is missing me as much as I’m missing her. I’m sure if I wanted to speak with her I could, but how would the conversation go? I’m not ready to talk about
