Fresh out of divorce, Hayley met the consequences of her actions. AGAIN! ***************"I thought you needed help, Hayley," he finally answered, his voice soft. My gaze narrowed.I released a shaky breath, relief washing over me. A small, involuntary smile touched my lips. "So, you do know me." He nodded, his expression still guarded. He knew me, and he'd been acting like this the whole time. Was it because I was no longer the glamorous, carefree woman he'd met? Was it because I wasn't flashing expensive jewelry and wearing designer clothes? Maybe he was ashamed of me. I averted my gaze, desperately hoping I was wrong. I couldn't bear the thought that I was just another one-night stand. My heart pounded as I mentally prepared myself to ask the question that had been clawing at my throat. We had no agreement! He never promised me anything, and here I was, teetering on the edge of...what? "Hayley. We're adults, you know," he began, his voice laced with a strange kind of warning.
