It Took Coming Home To Find Where I Belong

I was filled with anger when I came back to Macon, Texas.
I wanted nothing more than my son and to make those that betrayed me pay.
I ended up pushing vengeance aside.
I needed to concentrate on my kid. He was priority number one.
Being close to Katie again, was like lightning in a bottle.
Old memories, emotions and feelings came storming back.
I want my family—the family that should have been mine all along—back.
I’m on the verge of getting it all.
Then, my brother shows up again.
If he thinks he can take what’s mine—he’s wrong.
I’m back and I’ve learned from past mistakes.
This time, I’m not stepping aside.

Book 2 of 2
And the conclusion of Katie and Jake’s story.

CHAPTER 1

Katie

It can’t be good for your body to go from the ultimate high to a horrifying reality within the blink of an eye. Yet, when I see Jeff standing at the door, his face cold and filled with hate, that’s exactly what happens. The change is so sudden that my knees go weak.

“Shit,” Jake hisses, coming over to pick me up as my knees buckle under my weight. He carries me over to the couch, and I sit—all without taking my eyes off Jeff. He looks like a caged lion, the anger inside of him is that palpable. In all my years with him, I was never afraid to leave Lennon alone with him, but now, my instinct is to get my son away from the hostility shining on his face.

“Jeff! You came back! I knew you would!” my son yells, unaware of all the angry undercurrents in the air.

He runs into Jeff’s arms, and Jake lets out an inhuman sound that should terrify me, but instead, I just hear his pain—pain I am responsible for. I guess it’s never too late to be punished for your sins.

“Yeah, little man, I’m back,” Jeff answers, his voice gruff.

The anger may be thick and written on his face, but he’s at least gentle as he returns Lennon’s hug. Jake, on the other hand, is not handling his rage at all. It’s slowly sucking all the air out of the room. On instinct, I reach over and wrap my hand in his. There’s every chance in the world that he will knock my hand away, stomp out, and disappear. He could even tell me to fuck off. I’m worried, but I fight through it. I squeeze his hand. He looks down at me. Anger may be vibrating from him, but it’s anguish that is telegraphed on his face.

“So?” Jeff prompts. “Are congratulations in order?”

“Now’s not the time, Jeff,” Jake responds, his voice a rumbled mixture of anger and frustration.

“I think it’s the perfect time. Besides,” he adds with a shrug, “it’s a simple question. Are you marrying my fiancée.”

“Hey, Lennon? Can you go with Grandma into her room and help her find a pretty outfit for our celebration?” I ask, all too aware that the interaction and tension in the room is confusing my son—even if he’s clueless as to what’s going on.

“But, Mom,” he whines.

“Please?”

“But Jeff’s back, and I want to show him all the things he missed. He hasn’t even seen my new dinosaur,” Lennon insists.

“You can show him later, baby. I promise.”

“You aren’t leaving again—right, Jeff?”

“I’m not planning on it, Lenny. I have unfinished business here,” he says, staring right at me.

“Okay,” Lenny pouts as Mom uses her chair to go to him.

“Climb up on my lap, baby,” Mom says.

“I don’t see why I have to leave,” he mutters, but does as she asks.

“Sometimes, grownups have to talk about stuff they let build up too long,” she says wisely.

“I don’t want to be a grown up,” he says. “They’re dumb.”

“They definitely can be,” Mom murmurs, sparing me a look. She doesn’t tell me, but I can see the message in her eyes, pleading with me not to be stupid.

It might be too late for that.

The door to Mom’s bedroom barely closes when Jake growls, sounding like a wounded animal. “You’ve got a lot of nerve showing up here.”

“That’s rich coming from you. Did you forget you exited out of Katie and Lennon’s life years ago?” Jeff snaps.

I know I need to intercede before this gets out of hand, but right now, I’m not sure what to say—probably because I don’t know what I’m feeling.

“Typical of you to point out how other people fuck up. You’re not saying one word about what you did, are you, Jeff?”

“I did what I had to do to protect the woman I loved. The woman I’ve always loved.”

“You lied.”

“And you didn’t? I just wonder what lies you’ve told Katie since I’ve been gone. I mean, we both know how you operate, Jake.”

“You bastard,” Jake snarls, lunging at Jeff.

“Stop it! Stop!” I yell when they start throwing punches.

I never planned on coming home.
Never say never.

Katie Smith had forever written all over her.
I knew better than to touch her.
I just couldn’t stop myself.
I had plans, goals, and a life that didn’t include Macon, Texas.
What do you do when what you want clashes with what you love?
You either let it tear you apart, or you make a decision.
Now, seven years later, I have regrets—none as big as walking away from Katie.
But life moves on and she’s getting ready to marry my brother.
I don’t like it. There’s a pain inside me that I can’t escape, but there’s nothing I can do.
Then, I learn my decision had consequences.
Like a son I never knew was mine.

Prologue

KATIE

It feels as if time freezes. I turn around slowly, looking through the crowd, but it doesn’t take long. Jake’s standing behind where the seats begin. He has on those faded jeans, a buttoned-up western shirt, and that huge fucking belt buckle he always wears. It’s one of his prizes for his first championship—a championship he won while I was going through three days of labor. With his white Stetson, he oozes rodeo cowboy—which is just another reason to hate him. I turn, giving him my back as I gaze up at Jeff.

“It’s okay,” I whisper, knowing it’s not. The pastor begins speaking, and the ceremony commences. Jeff nods, but his face is tight. I reach up and touch him. “It’s okay,” I tell him again. I need to say more, but for that, we really need to be alone. He gives me a grimace, which I think is supposed to be a smile.

“Before we begin, does anyone here have a reason why these two shouldn’t enter into the vows of holy matrimony?” Pastor Kurt says, addressing the crowd.

I grin as silence rings out. I ignore the butterflies in my stomach and give Jeff a wink and even he smiles—at least a little.

We just need to get through this ceremony. That’s it.

“I guess that would be me, Pastor.”

Gasps explode all around me as shock fills my body. I hold on to Jeff’s hand to keep my knees from buckling. I turn to look as Jake strolls up the aisle. Out of the corner of my eye, I see Barbara grab Lennon in her arms and take him inside. I’m completely grateful. I don’t want my son to see any of this.

“What are you doing?” I hiss.

“I think before you say ‘I do’ to my brother, you and I need to have a talk, Katie.”

“I have nothing to say to you.”

“We can talk about it alone or in front of everyone here. The choice is yours,” he says, his face cold and completely closed off.

I look up at Jeff. Oddly enough, he looks resigned as he steps back from me.

“Go talk to him. It’s past time.” He sounds so weary, so tired, that I don’t know how to reply.

“Jeff, sweetheart…”

“Just do it, Katie.” I nod. It’s not like I have a choice. It looks like instead of a wedding day, I’m going to have a day of reckoning with Jake Ryan.

CHAPTER 1

Jake

Acid churns in my stomach. It was hard as fuck to watch Katie walk up the aisle in that white wedding dress, smiling at my brother. How in the fuck is it possible that she’s just gotten prettier over the years? Hell, I stopped coming home at all because it just got too painful to see her.

I knew she would move on and leave what we shared in the dust. I hated it, but I understood. The two of us always wanted different things in life. When she had Lennon, it felt like I had been gutted. I went on a week-long bender. It didn’t help, but it fucking numbed the pain.

I follow Katie toward the old barn. How many times did the two of us sneak away to this damn place, spending hours experimenting and memorizing each other’s body? How many times did I bury myself inside her, thinking that we’d be together for the rest of my life? She spins around to look at me as the smell of musty hay assaults me. Once upon a time, being in a barn near my horses was all that calmed me besides Katie. Now, I have both and I just want to scream.

“You’re a bastard,” Katie hisses and fuck me, I shouldn’t care that there are tears in her eyes. I really shouldn’t. Still, the urge to wipe them away is there. I hold on to the anger inside of me. It might not be completely justified, but there are still a lot of reasons for having it, and it helps turn my resolve into steel.

“I don’t think you want to start calling each other names right now, Katie.”

“After all this time, who are you to show up on my wedding day and ruin it? Why, Jake? Why? Why would you do this to me? Hell, why would you hurt your brother like this?”
