Secrets … dirty ones. He was mine … there was a time … Or so I thought. Instead, I was simply his dirty little secret. He couldn’t, no wouldn’t risk telling his best friend – my brother – about us. So, I kept quiet. Blinded by love and bound by my own desires, I allowed it all. I didn’t tell a single soul about my time with Sawyer, not my brother, not my closest friends. Not then, and especially not now. How can I? My best friend is his ex-wife. The past is the past. I’m over him. I refuse to still love him. He will never own me again. I repeat the lies over and over again to myself every single day. Only, deep down, no matter how hard I try to deny it, I’ve always been his. I want more between us than a dirty little secret. **Standalone***
