Chapter 3 Eric and I started seeing each other pretty regularly after our first night together. We usually spent a few nights a week together at my house.

That ended after about two weeks when he ran into his brother one evening while he was at my house. I’d been sitting on the front porch, waiting for Eric, when he turned onto the street. He was walking from his usual parking spot around the corner and coming up my walkway when Gary pulled up in his massive GMC Yukon. Until this point, Eric had somehow managed to avoid being seen by the Keener clan during his visits with me. He’d told me he wasn’t ashamed
