Second Choice

Serenity Warren Steamy Stories

Allowing myself to relax, I lean against the black and white tiled wall. The mixtures from water and the warmth awaken my body, forcing me to want to enjoy more. I close my eyes, but the phone rings on the sink next to the toilet. I glance out to see who it is.

It is from Carralem’s Hospital. Oh, no….

By the third ring, I gather my towel and answer the phone in a hurry. "Hello?"

"Hello, Yes. Is this Bailey McDowell?"

I stare into the steamy mirror. Reflecting is a pale blonde hair woman with dark circles and eyes that have been through a lifetime already.

"The one and only."

There is silence for a moment. The lady could detect my sarcasm. "I am sorry, Ma'am. We have you on file to call...There has been an accident."

"Of course, there has."

Tainted love. That is Bailey's motto.
No matter what she does or where she goes, the people in her life end up dead or just plain wrong. With a surprise push out the door, Bailey moves to a new town and take college classes to become a writer.
New school. New life. Bailey is finally free from the pain of her past until her best friend, Dusty, shows back up. Her feelings go into overdrive. Bailey falls for him. Hard.
Life finally seems promising until Dusty forgets to mention one thing. That he is getting married to his high school sweetheart the moment he goes home.
