Description:

He’s my brother’s best friend, my boss, and frenemy…And I think I love him.

Tragedy struck when I was five years old, which created an unbreakable bond between us. He’s the one I go to for everything… before my brother, my friends, and absolutely before my parents. When I was little, I stated I would marry him one day. But, after my sixteenth birthday, he stopped taking my calls and texts like he used to. Creating another hurt I just didn’t want to face.

In the end, I tried to let it go. After all, every time someone got close, they ended up hurting me.

A couple of years later, our parents die, causing the rollercoaster that is our relationship to start up once more. He is there again as if nothing had changed. When trouble hits my door, he’s the one there to bail me out.

He hired me at his growing business. As time goes on, the tension between us grows. What I never counted on was for him to act on the subtle looks he had been giving. Never expected him to give in to the tension that had been growing between us.

But then he does, and it is explosive. Yet, the only thing he won’t do is kiss me. Won’t admit that there is more to us than attraction. Long ago, he made a promise to my brother. One he refuses to break… even at the expense of breaking my heart.

I’m sick of it all.

When an opportunity drops in my lap, I take it and run away.

Now I can’t help but wonder… Will he follow me? Or will he be like everyone else and break me?
