I expect him to say, for having sex in a spare hospital bed. But that doesn’t make sense.
He finishes his sentence, “For money laundering and fraud.”
I stare at him, wide-eyed. I have no idea what he is talking about.
Killian is still holding on to my waist, refusing to let me go.
“I’m going to have to ask you to let her go.”
Killian does reluctantly, and the man puts the cuffs on me. The man begins walking me out of the room. I hear Killian running next to us.
“Excellent job, Agent Byrne,” the man who has me in cuffs says.
I turn to my right to face the direction where the man is talking, but I have no idea who he is talking to. All I see is Killian. Killian Browne.
Killian’s eyes grow heavy, sad, as he looks from me and then to the man who has me in cuffs. “Thank you, Agent Phillips,” Killian says weakly.
My mouth drops. Killian isn’t Killian. He’s not a CEO. He’s a cop or with the FBI or CIA or whatever the hell agents work with.
I force myself to keep my eyes off of Killian or whatever the hell his name is as the man leads me out of the hospital and into the back of a blacked-out Suburban.
I was wrong. I’m always wrong. Killian doesn’t love me. He doesn’t care about being a CEO. He was just doing his job.
I try to push Killian out of my head. I try to focus on whatever I’m facing as the car speeds off, leaving the hospital behind. I can’t help it though. I glance back at him. Killian’s standing on the street, staring at me with an intense stare on his face.
I hate him, I think.
But I don’t. The lingering love is still there. I still feel his warm cum pooling between my thighs. I still feel his love even if it didn’t exist.
I turn away from him.
Any normal woman would be afraid. Being arrested is most people’s worst nightmare. It should be mine, except this isn’t the first time I’ve made a mistake. It feels just like the last time. The pain from being betrayed by a man I thought loved me is the same.
The only difference is, last time I knew what the mistake was. But, this time, I have no clue.
The End

Maybe Never Preview
Will one mistake destroy her life? Will one secret? One lie?
* * *
Kinsley Felton thought she had found a solution to her problems. She thought she had convinced her family that she is strong enough to run the company, if not on her own, then with help. She thought she had won when she decided not to marry Killian and instead just date him. But everything she thought was wrong.
Killian isn't who she thought he was. Now she is sitting in a jail cell for something she didn't do because of him. But maybe she deserves to sit in jail anyway to pay for her past mistakes. All she knows is she needs to stay far away from Killian no matter how much her heart aches for him.
* * *
Will Kinsley let herself get lost in the deceit or will she save herself and take another chance at love?

I pace back and forth in the holding cell, unable to sit patiently like the rest of my cellmates. One woman lies back on one of the benches, seemingly asleep, while another sits across from her, picking the nail polish off her fingers.
Not me though. I can’t sit. Not when I have no idea why I’m here. So, instead, I pace back and forth in the small cell, hoping that, soon, someone will come to tell me what the hell is going on. I also have to pee, which is keeping me from sitting down, but I’m not going to go in the toilet in the corner of the room—at least not until I can’t hold it any longer.
I think back to the last time I was here. It was the same jail and the same holding cell with the same disgusting yellow walls. Last time, I was calmer, much calmer, because I had accepted that I deserved to be in prison. I had confessed.
I stop pacing when the woman lying on the bench snores, startling me. I don’t know why I’m back in jail now. What did I do? The agent mentioned something about fraud and money laundering. I didn’t do either of those things. It must be a mistake.
And Killian…
I can barely even let my heart go there. One day—actually, less than a day, more like one hour, was all I got with Killian. It’s all the time I got to think about a possible future with him.
I thought I loved him.
I thought he was the one for me.
I was wrong.
Killian isn’t Killian. Killian is a liar. I chose wrong, again.
I glance at the clock that is barely visible outside the holding cell. It’s past midnight. They won’t question me tonight. I won’t be arraigned tonight. They won’t do anything with me tonight. I’m stuck here, in this cold room, with two strange women.
I take a seat on the only remaining bench in the room and rest my head against the wall. I cross my arms over my chest and rub my hands over them, trying to warm up, but I’m still shivering, despite my efforts. I push the urge to pee along with thoughts of why I’m in here out of my head. I push Killian out of my head until the only thing that remains is last time.
This feels just like last time when I had fallen for a man who wasn’t what he seemed. Then, I fell again for the wrong man. Even though my father and grandfather had handpicked him, they picked wrong. Maybe there isn’t a man out there for me.
I should have learned my lesson the first time. Instead, I’m back in this cell again, and this time, I don’t know when I’ll be getting out.
