I was dating their son for almost a year.

Well, the wrong one.

And now, I was about to date their other son.

But, I went back home and then he ended up moving down with me.

He always said they are really busy and that we would meet eventually.

“See, I told you nice officers that she was in safe hands.” A lovely voice said as we started walking through the crowd of actors and others.

The voice was like honey and maple syrup on a fall day.

But, why did that voice sound so familiar?

I kept walking.

“Raven, come here dear.”

She knew my name….

What the hell…

And then, my mind catches up to why I knew that voice.

It was a voice that I’ve heard a lot when I’ve came to visit.

No fucking way.

I finally make it to the center.

There she was.

Dark hair with a sliver of silver in the front.

But instead of her normal cardigan and pants, she was wearing a sort of ringmaster costume.

“Lindy?”

My amazing, sweet owner of Between the Pages bookstore.

This was Sullivan and Sebastian’s mom?

And the owner of the carnival?

“Yes, dear.”

I looked up at Sullivan.

“We definitely need to talk.”

THIRTY ONE

One week later……

Flesh on flesh.

The sound of pants fill the room.
