Free A Broken Beautiful Beginning by Sophie Summers Page A

waiting for my response.
    I let out a deep breath not knowing what to think or say. God knows I have a soft spot for Jace, even after the shit he put me through, I don’t know why but I just do. He was there throughout my pregnancy, okay...I know he hurt me most of the time but he always came back and fought for me.
    I would never tell Caleb this but sometimes when Jace would hold me and put his protective hands over my baby bump when he slept next to me, I would imagine it was Caleb doing it. I’ll never repeat it out loud though and if that makes me a coward then so be it. It wasn’t that I felt sorry for Jace but I just couldn’t shake him loose, the fact that he was so devastatingly attractive didn’t help and that definitely should not be a reason for any woman to stay with a man who treats you terribly. I wouldn’t want that for Willow or any other woman. I grew to love Jace during my loneliness and I still care for him but the truth is Jace and I would never work. I only see Caleb in my future.
    There’s no doubt I loved him but not the way he loves me. I love Hunter, Jesse and Brent too but I’m in love with Caleb. My heart belongs to him and always will.
    Love is love and although I know Jace loves me in his own strange way, to me… the love he feels isn’t the same love I feel for Caleb. You’re not supposed to hurt the ones you love, right?
    Well Jace continuously set out to hurt me. You don’t treat someone you love the way he treated me.
    Okay … okay… so Caleb cheated on me with my best friend but the look of regret that clung to his face when he saw me standing there is still etched into my memory, no matter how many times I caught Jace messing around ....not once did he give me that look.
    I mean seriously , although we weren’t official yet that first time I heard him having sex with another woman, it still hurt and he knew how hurt I was but it still took him a day to apologise. He saw nothing wrong with the fact that he told me I was his when the same didn’t apply to him. Whatever, all of that doesn’t matter now either way.
    I’m with the man I’m supposed to be with. I finally have my family together and I couldn’t be happier. I hope one day Jace finds that happiness too and realizes that what he thought was love is nothing compared to what true love feels like.

    I grab my car keys, give Willow a kiss on the forehead and tell Brent I’ll be back soon. The conversation I’m about to have needs to be done face to face.
    I head over to my father’s garage; I know he’s working this afternoon on one of the trucks. The entire drive to Daddy’s workshop my mind races trying to form a speech but I’m too mad and I have too much to say to him right now.
    I climb out the car and slam the door closed. A few guys working on a car look up just in time to see my scowl. I march straight passed them.
    “Pretty girl looks just like her daddy when she’s angry.” Toby, one of the older men says with a chuckle.
    “Not now Toby.” I lift my palm up in warning as I continue to walk.
    I find my father in his office, Anna sitting there chatting with him, both of them all smiles until they see my face.

    “What the hell is wrong with you?” I yell at my father knowing he was the one to let Jace near my daughter. Anna wouldn’t overstep, she knows how I feel about the situation.

    CALEB POV
    That’s it! I should’ve dealt with this fucker the minute I got Harley back. Her damn father said he dealt with the issue and I wasn’t needed. Clearly I am needed. Grimm had no right letting that bastard near my baby girl.
    I stop at the club house and walk into the bar. Its late afternoon and there’s only a few bikers in the club lounging around with some of the girls.
    I spot Hunter the minute I walk in. You can’t miss the huge dude.
    Hunter ’s been to my house a couple times since we met. In the beginning I was unsure of his relationship with Harley. But the guy has never once disrespected
