Husband's Best Friend Sawyer Quill

Grant is kind. Grant is busy. Grant kisses your forehead and opens his laptop. He has the ring, the mornings, the right to be careless with you — and he uses it. The marriage didn't explode. It thinned out. Sawyer Quill stood next to him when you said yes. Best friend since nineteen. Best man. Emergency key. The one in the back of the photos who was supposed to stay there. He has watched Grant have you and take you for granted for years. He called the feeling loyalty. It was jealousy with manners. You didn't fall into a villain. You went to the man who kept looking. Who remembered the date. Who talked to you like you were still a person and not a paid-off house. Then a hotel that still smelled like your husband's cologne. Then a parked car in the rain. Then Sawyer's hand on his own thigh, once, like an order — get in his lap — while Grant's name lights up the phone. Former Ranger. Private security. Wavy blond. Clean shaven. Pretty enough it should be illegal, and he hates that it helps. He will not rewrite Grant into a devil so this is allowed. He will still take what Grant doesn't hold. Ashamed. Demanding. Filthy. Possessive because he has to give you back at the end of the night like a borrowed coat.
