STORMY DREAM

"I don't think he likes Ace," Fay said.

Leighton agreed in her head. She also knew the reason why. How could he like the man that was married to the woman he loved?

Once again, she was in a difficult position. She adored Fay with all her heart. They had been the absolute best of friends as kids. How could she not love her?

But it was different from what she felt for Alexander.

He was her savior in one too many ways. She was in love with him. Had been from the very first day she met him. That love had become torture.

Watching him love other women in ways he could never love her.

Seeing the heartbreak when these relationships failed. Tending to his broken heart until he was healed, and ready to love again.

One thing she envied the most about Alexander was his ability to move on from a failed relationship.

She had held on to loving him, and because of that, had never been in a serious relationship.
