Doc clears his throat, but I don't look at him as he speaks; I keep my eyes on hers, "I, uh, wanted to let you all know that Prue is now not only my old lady, but we're also starting afamilytogether. She also agreed to marry me."
Her eyes show hunger and happiness as she looks at me like she's won, all while Doc refuses to look my way. Crow, however, looks at me with pity, proving he knew what we did two weeks ago, but I ignore him; this is his son, so, of course, he will stand by him. It doesn't matter that my uncle was a brother, it doesn’t matter that I gave him my virginity.
Doc will always come first to this club, and this is one of the reasons why I refuse to allow the brothers to know my true blood. This is the sign I needed. My mind is finally made up.
I grab my phone and quickly type out a message to Claudia.
Me: Hey Claud, just messaging to let you know I accept the New York offer.
My thumb hovers over the send button as Lola whispers, "Kennedy?" I send the message, refusing change my mind, hoping Noah can forgive me.
Taking a deep breath, I give her a heartbreaking smile, my eyes shining. Her tears fall faster, seeing my defeat.
I look at Prue again. She won, and he lied to me and used me.
Alex enters the quiet room while I watch the love of my life holding the woman he told me he wasn't with.
He made me the other woman; he cheated.
"Please fucking tell me, Doc, that you have not fucking given your fling, a patch chaser, your fucking cut?" Alex growls as everything becomes hazy, my ears feeling like they are filling with water until I can't hear what he's saying over the shattering pieces of my heart.
Was I just something he wanted to get out of the way before settling down?
The pain consumes me, my chest hurting to the point I feel like I'm having a heart attack, and I can't take it anymore; I need to get out of here. I turn and kiss Lola on the cheek, and she shakes her head, knowing it is a goodbye.
She can see I’m done…
Ignoring everyone in the room, I squeeze her hand, before standing up and making my way over to the door as Alex lets loose for me. When I walk past him, he goes to grab my arm, but I grab his instead, give it a squeeze, and go out the door into the cool night air. I hear Doc shout for me, but I ignore him, too.
He's dead to me now; he's broken me.
I was just another notch on his bedpost. He said everything I wanted to hear, and it wouldn't surprise me that he got that tattoo as a dare.
Oh God, I gave him my virginity, my heart—I even buried someone for him.
I thought he loved me.
An hour later, after saying goodbye to Alex, hurting him. After giving him the confirmation about my job, I went home to a passed-out Momma and Dad, and packed my bags quietly. I kept what cash in my purse—around $200—and left the rest under the floorboard. I only needed money for gas. On the counter, I left a note saying goodbye, and got in my car. Claudia messaged me back, saying they wanted me there as soon as possible. I decided to drive to New York to clear my head, not telling anyone I was leaving or where I was going. What better way to clear my thoughts way than a twenty-six-hour car ride, right?
I just hope Noah can forgive me….
As I drive past Lookout Point, I stop and take one last look at a town I’ll likely never see again, my gaze moving toward the direction of the club, where my heart lays in pieces, where the man I love is starting a family, or thinks he's starting a family because right now, it wouldn't surprise me that she lied just to get his cut, and he fell for it hook, line, and sinker.
With one last look and a silent goodbye, I climb back into my car with the promise to only stay in touch with Alex and Sniper. I refuse to make Lola choose between me and her brother.
I cry when I reach the “See you soon…” sign of Huntersville, and a sob builds. A vision of Doc's beautiful eyes stare at me as he enters me for the first time, before he makes love to me.
Though, it wasn't love, it was all a lie—he made me the other woman to scratch an itch, and that hurts.
He played me.

Doc
I watch as Breaker follows the love of my life as she walks out of the clubhouse, my heart following along as my dad grips my shoulder, knowing I can't run after her like I want to.
Fuck, I shouldn't have even called after her like I just did.
