Sneak Peek of BAIN
Prologue
An inkling, that’s how it always
starts. Something that can’t be seen, only felt, hardens into knots in your gut.
Catching you off guard, unaware as to why you feel that way. You start
questioning everything around you and wondering what’s going to go off like a
bomb, because this feeling always comes back to something bad. I couldn’t have
predicted that the something bad was going to be horrific, no one could have
known.
Yes, the possibilities were endless as to what could have caused
the feeling of my stomach sinking, the nausea threatening to exhale what I ate
earlier for lunch. I didn’t expect a phone call as I stood in line at airport
security, to change my life forever. To cause irreversible damage.
“Lawson, what’s up?”
“You need to meet me at your place, immediately.” I hear Lawson say
over the line in a haunting tone.
“You know I can’t, I’m headed to Vegas. Remember, the meeting you
sat up?”
“Bain that can wait, this cant. Please, I can’t explain over the
phone.”
Something about Lawson’s tone told me I shouldn’t argue, that he
needed me to just shut my mouth and do as he asked. He wouldn’t have called me
without reason.
Even while running out of the airport and hailing a cab, my baggage
in hand, did I not recognize the sickening twist of my stomach to be a sign of
what was about to come.
Tossing money to the cab driver I haul ass into Sara’s and my
apartment. The door opens as I approach it, Lawson’s face greeting me. His eyes
drawn down, looking away from me.
It’s bad.
I know it is.
“Tell me.”
His eyes meet mine, and he breaks. Fucking folds right in half, his
weight too much to hold up underneath the stress of whatever it is he has to
tell me.
My gut. The feeling.
This is why. This moment right here, it’s going to define my life.
“There’s been an accident…We need to get to hospital. I’m driving
us.”
Sara.
Samantha.
My world. My life. The reason I’m doing what I do with such
devotion.
“What?” I pause, my thoughts leaving me. I stumble back, falling on
my ass. On my front porch. I just…this can’t be real.
This isn’t real.
It’s just a horrible nightmare that I’m bound to wake up from at
any minute.
No.
“Bain, get in my truck. Now.” Lawson says with renewed
strength.
I stare at him, one million questions on the tip of my tongue.
