Foresight is Flawless – Chapter 87

February 3, 2012 By 4 Comments

Tension filled the air as Price stared into the drink Yvonne had given him. Her eyes were on him, taking in his silence. Though he’d emptied half the glass’s contents down his throat, he didn’t have a clue what it was. Nothing registered in his mind except for the fact he’d just seen Skylar in the arms of another man. Knowing that any chance they may have had was gone was more than he could take.

“Were you planning to explain why you showed up at my door after eight years or what?” [Read more...]

Foresight is Flawless – Chapter 86

Some women just had the whole package: brains, a pretty face, hot body and a great sense of humor. Unfortunately for Eric, Scarlet Ivers had the personality of a rock.

If she hadn’t been wearing a low-cut blouse that clung to her every curve under her suit jacket – a jacket that came off almost the instant they met –he would have ended their time together as soon as the final ‘t’ in Vanderbilt was crossed. But his evening could still be salvaged by a quick blow job, so he stuck it out. [Read more...]

Something wasn’t right. It wasn’t so much a sound as it was a feeling that let me know we were being watched. “I need to check on something.”

Skylar pulled away from me and wiped fresh tears from her eyes. I didn’t wait for her to respond before leaving. [Read more...]

Certainty is one of those elusive things that probably didn’t exist outside of fiction – or at least that’s what Price had been telling himself ever since he got into his car. Though it was time to own up to the way he’d left things, it would be nice to have some idea as to the way Skylar would react when she opened the door to find him standing there. If nothing else, Price hoped she would listen to him when he warned her about Eric. [Read more...]

As soon as I heard the door click shut, I pulled away from Skylar and peered around the curtain. The coast was clear. Based on the ragged breathing at my back, I had some explaining to do.

I turned to face her. “Sorry about that. I thought I saw someone outside.” [Read more...]

Price’s call to Skylar had been futile. Actually, he’d tried to reach her several times over the course of the day to no avail. At first, he’d just thought she wasn’t picking up because he’d blocked the caller ID. He’d then tried to call her from his land line. When he still didn’t get a response, he found the cell phone he used when he was with her, charged it briefly and tried again.

Voicemail each and every time. [Read more...]

Skylar couldn’t stop thinking about the cell phone that was still sitting on her coffee table. Even after hours on the road her mind kept wondering who called. It hadn’t been Price; logically she knew that was true. In her heart, she hoped she was wrong.

At least Caldwell hadn’t made things worse by keeping up the pretense of a conversation with her. [Read more...]

Eric completed his survey of the property and returned to his car. It was perfect. Though the complete details of his plan were still sketchy, he knew this would be the perfect setting for the final moments of his brother’s life. It would be tricky to get Skylar out here, but it would be so worth it. That moment when the simple truth of what was going on was realized and reached her eyes would make all of his time in hiding worth the wait. [Read more...]

I was in a foul mood by the time I got to Skylar’s townhouse. Jenna said she couldn’t marry me. Did that also mean it was over between us? Would I be coming home to find the locks changed and all my stuff in the lawn? This just couldn’t be the way things ended for us. I’d just have to hurry and wrap up my case so I could get back to Jenna and attempt to make her understand how much I needed her in my life.

Unfortunately, Skylar looked like she’d just gotten out of bed. [Read more...]

Price gazed out across the lake as he walked along the shore, not noticing its beauty. That was something he did quite a bit these days. In the time he’d spent at his lake home, he’d walked this path practically every day. Each day he told himself he had a good life and he should be enjoying it. Though he was arguably the most eligible bachelor in town he still spent all of his evenings alone.

Thinking of Skylar. [Read more...]

Monday, July 5

Despite the fact we’d stayed up well into the night, I was still up at sunrise. Nerves. It had to be. After everything that had gone on the night before, I really should have been in bed until at least noon – probably sleeping. But sleep was out of the question. Today was a new day and I had things to do.

Unfortunately, I still hadn’t told Jenna about any of it. [Read more...]

Jackson gave her a blank stare. Jenna realized how he must have taken what she’d said and quickly added, “I mean eventually, not yet.”

He blinked a few times. “I don’t understand, honey.” [Read more...]

Sunday, July 4

My plan fell apart before it even got started. Everything had been in place. The restaurant confirmed my reservation, the ring was in my suit jacket in the car and I’d gone over what I was going to say to Jenna at least a thousand times since that morning. Every single angle was covered.

Except for Jenna getting out of the shower and telling me she didn’t feel like going out to eat. [Read more...]

Skylar hated the Fourth of July and she especially hated the fact she had to wait until afterwards to start making some progress in her life. She knew it was wrong to be angry at Caldwell for wanting to spend the holiday with his family; she just didn’t care. Not everyone cried at the mere thought of fireworks, she reminded herself time and again.

It never helped. [Read more...]

Saturday, July 3

I had a plan. For the first time since deciding I wanted to marry Jenna, I actually had some idea how I was going to ask her. No more worrying about what to say. It was perfect in every way.

But it would be a miracle if I didn’t fuck things up before I put my plan into action. [Read more...]
