Ava by L.G.Savage (HeartBreak)

Chapter 116

Zeke crashed through the front door and looked around. All the curtains were drawn, so it was dark inside. There were only two people in this house, all alone like a couple of lovers.

He watched the stubborn tilt of her chin and the sudden anger in her eyes as she remained in front of Jared’s bedroom door. How the hell had things gone so wrong since this morning?
