Crushed (Breaking the Rules Series book 5)
“I tell him with a quiver of my chin.
He’s standing behind me in our bathroom. I can feel his eyes searching for mine in the mirror, but I take the easy way out and stare down at the faucet. His heat envelopes me and warms me like usual whenever he is close, but today, an inner chill causes me to shiver.
He sweeps a long, damp, blond strand of hair away from my shoulder and presses a soft kiss to my neck. I want to sink back against his chest and have him hug me tight, but I need to be strong. Quitting is the best thing for us right now.
“You can’t quit, Andi. This is what you love. You’d be so bored otherwise.” His voice is knowing and firm.
I’m instantly angry. “Jackson,” I huff out and lift my eyes to his in the mirror. They bore right into me like always. Again, the shiver threatens to course through my body, but I fight it away. “I’m quitting and that is the end of it. I need to rest and take care of the baby.”
His eyes darken as he scowls. I know he’s disappointed, but I can’t lo...se this one.MoreLess
