Chapter 157

Courtney

I squeeze my eyes shut.

It was just a dream.

A mashup of subconscious thoughts.

Nonsense.

It shouldn’t make me cry.

But waking up to him . Here .

Telling me he has me…

Sterling strokes his hand down my back.

And it only makes my heart ache more.

It was just a stupid dream.

“Sleep, Honey.” Sterling’s voice rumbles through me.

I should ask him about his hands.

Ask if that’s why he’s been avoiding me.

Ask why it looks like he got in a fight.

But I’m too tired.

And he’s too comfortable.

When I wake again, the sun is rising and Sterling is gone.
