Chase, I need you. Please come. —Teagan
Something inside me snapped as her text screamed from the screen of my phone. My heart started pounding as I was instantly sucked into a vortex of emotions, pulled unwillingly into a past I desperately wanted to forget.
Teagan Tessler was the love of my life; at least, I thought so. My professional soccer career was part of the future we had planned together, but an offer sent me to London a year ahead of schedule. Just months after I left she married my best friend Jensen without explanation, leaving me completely and utterly destroyed by the two people I loved the most.
After six difficult years, I could finally breathe again and my professional and personal life were in a good place. I'd have to be insane to consider ripping open old wounds, but whatever she needed, it had to be huge.
The truth of my feelings resonated; my head told me to shut off the phone and forget Teagan forever, but my traitorous heart wanted to get on a plane, no questions asked. Clearly, I wasn't over her, but could I risk my heart again?
