EPILOGUE 2
Lex
Months Later
Willow Creek wasn’t for me. My reasons for staying were slowly dwindling. Olivia was doing better and better each day. She talked more to her therapist and the relationship between her and Maisie was much better. She didn’t need me as much as she had when things first went down. I was happy for her, even if it meant less time with one of the few people I considered a friend.
Speaking of friends.
I looked down at my ringing phone and contemplated not answering it.
It was Maverick, my boss.
Although, he might not be my boss for much longer. I was debating letting him know this wasn't going to work for me. Small-town life wasn't busy enough to keep my mind off what I witnessed and endured while enlisted. It didn't keep the demons at bay.
The call almost rang out before I finally answered. "Yeah?"
One word. I was a man who preferred limited vocabulary.
"Wes called. He needs some help with a problem. I figured you could meet with him and see what's going on."
I would do it. If for no other reason than I owed Wes my life. Then I could tell Maverick I was done and needed to move on from this place. I appreciated what he wanted to do for me but I wasn't like the rest of them. I was too fucked up for a simple life.
