Freeing Denver (The Luxe Universe #3)

Chapter 42

Colt

Ipush the heels of my palms into my eyes.

The gun feels too hot.

It’s too quiet.

I can’t watch as I lose her. As I lose everything. As my world falls apart all over again. I can’t take another whispered apology from a doctor.

I won’t survive it.

I can’t.

“Please, Del,” I whisper, pushing against my closed eyes so hard that lights flash. “Come back to me.”

Our forever is so close, too close to let it slip away now.

Please, Del. Please—

Beep.

“We’ve got a heartbeat.”
