CHAPTER EIGHT

I heard and saw everything.

My wife was out in public kissing another man. I was glad I followed my gut and followed her.

I should have know she couldn't be trusted.

Who should I confront first? I walked toward Shane, I knew I have a chance to deal with her later.

Andrea left in her car, but he was still there.

"You're Philip Blake. Aren't you?" Shane looks at me intensely with dark brown eyes.

"Yes," I said.

"Andrea told me all about you," he says walking closer. He is unafraid of me, but I am not scared of him either.

"I know all about you. And you know all about me. I don't care about anything of that. You need to stay the hell away from wife," I warned him.

"She isn't yours anymore, Philip. She wants me. And there ain't shit you can do about it," he says moving closer. Almost charging at me.

"You get off on that? Breaking up marriages," I said stepping closer to him. I could feel my heart pounding and my blood rushing through my body. If he wanted a fight, I was game.

"I am a better for you her than you are.'Cause I am a better man. Let me tell you something, I am a police officer. I can have them run background checks on people. I got one on the name Maggie Greene sound familiar? You're attempted date rape victim. Or what about Glenn Rhee? The man you assaulted. How do you think your wife will feel when I share this infomation with her? Do your a favor and back off. Let her go man," Shane smirked, looking very pleased with himself.

There it was my ugly past, haunting me again. If he told Andrea, I would have no chance of making things right. She wouldn't understand that I wasn't that man anymore.

"Stay the hell away from her," I said taking my hand and punching his nose. I watch as blood starts to bleed down his face.

I decide to leave, beating the shit out of a cop would not help me any at this point. Would be best to try to find Andrea before Shane did. She couldn't find out about my past. I was almost to my car when Shane punched me in my face. Causing my lips to bleed.

"You lost. She does not love you," he promises.

I decided to ignore him, for now.
