Chapter 160

Erik's POV 

For the first time in a very long time, I had made love to a woman who I had feelings for.

I liked it. I wanted her again. For a moment, I wanted to just check myself out of the facility, run over to her house, and make love to her constantly for the next week. But I couldn’t do that. Cassidy wouldn’t have been excited to see me if I left treatment, she would be pissed.

It was exciting to have something with a girl who also wanted to be sober. I seriously doubted I would find many girls like that on the West Coast in the party atmosphere I lived in. I didn’t sleep much that night, although I did eventually fall asleep from total exhaustion.

I was a little relieved when Cassidy didn’t work the next day. As much as I wanted to see her, I wanted to finish up my plan for my father and brother, and I had to call my old partner Spencer to have some help with the logistics of everything.

“Hey, Spencer,” I said when he answered his phone.
