Nick had been different. Kinder. Confident in an innate way. He didn’t have to prove himself or act superior. He’d just been a hot, sexy guy who’d known what he wanted. I couldn’t believe he’d chosen me.
My sister Chloe waited patiently for me to continue.
I drew a deep breath. “We had dinner, walked on the beach and talked, a lot. We ended up back in his room and…you know the rest. But he used protection.” I waved my hands in the air, as frustrated now as I had been then. “It was just one of those freak things.”
I would never regret having Leah. I adored my child. Leah was my life. But at the time, my fear had been overwhelming.
“Nick and I never exchanged last names. We both knew he was in town for a short time visiting a friend, and that he’d go back to his life. And I had to figure out mine.”
“But now he’s out there?” Chloe asked.
“He was standing with the so-called Dirty Dare brothers.”
Chloe narrowed her gaze. “You said Nick.” She pulled her phone from her purse. “Don’t worry. I’m just asking Sasha if there’s a Nick Dare.” Her fingers tapped on the screen.
I blinked. “He looked like Harrison,” I whispered.
A few seconds later, Chloe’s phone beeped and she glanced down. “And we have a winner. Nick Dare is your baby daddy.”
I nodded slowly. A Dare. A cousin to Dr. Braden Prescott and his wife, Willow, who had helped me when I was pregnant.
Well, that was a coincidence, but it was one I could handle. Nick being here, now, would be harder.
“I have to face him. He needs to know about Leah.” My insides trembled at the thought.
Chloe sighed. “He does. But why don’t you start with just seeing him again, then go from there. Can you do that?”
“I have no choice.” Drawing a deep breath for courage, I rose to my feet.
It was time to face my past.
“I’m ready,” I said to Chloe.
Her sister pulled me into a hug—something that even after five years, I was still getting used to, after a lifetime deprived of affection.
I hugged Chloe back. “Thank you.”
“Don’t be silly. That’s what family is for.” Chloe shot me a look and I nodded.
Chloe stepped towards the bathroom door and walked outside, and I followed behind. But I didn’t have to go far.
Just as I stepped out into the hallway, I came face to face with Nick.
