brushed my hands together. “I’m done.”  
    Turning and making my way back to my room, I unlocked the door and moved to pick my bag up off the floor and started chucking everything in. I heard the door open and both Jasmine and Lucas came into the room frowning. “What happened?”  
    “What happened? You mean apart from the bastard pretending that he went out and brought her all her favourites? I can’t sit around and watch her with him. Anyone else and it might be a different story, but Morgan is a cocky, smug asshole who I am close to losing my patience with. Lucas, I am done. I can’t be here anymore. I will get another of my guys out here to continue, but I need to be as far away from that toxic mess as I can get.” I turned to look at Jasmine. “And Maddison? Not much better than the asshole. She knew what she was doing with me this morning. She knows she doesn’t feel for him anything like what she does for me, but she is letting the past make her decisions. That’s fine. History is about to repeat itself, only I will be in control this time. I thought I could do this. I thought I could hang around, but I just can’t.”
    Jasmine frowned and moved over to me. “Please, Tim. Just give me a day. I can talk some sense into her and make her see what’s right in front of her.”  
    I took a deep breath and nodded. “You have until my replacement gets here. Then I am gone.”  
    They both nodded and left the room. I threw my bag across the room and sat on the bed. Pulling out my phone, I called Gunner. “Your passport good?”  
    “Yeah, boss, why?”  
    “Get your ass out here now.”  
    “On it.” He hung up and I laid back. Now my focus was on not killing the douche canoe.  
    Laying back on the bed, I let my thoughts drift off. After being discharged from the army - after my ‘incident’, as some referred to it - I got my band of misfits together and started my company. Never in a million years did I think that would bring me to the other side of the world. Running my hands over my face, I let out a breath. I couldn’t get her off my mind, and wouldn’t be able to no matter how hard I tried. I had to try, though, if I was about to leave her again. Would she even care? I shook my head and pushed myself to sit up. I couldn’t think of that or I would never get on that plane.  
    Hearing a knock at my door, I glared at the thing and ignored it. I wasn’t in the mood to deal with anyone right now. There was another knock followed by an impatient sigh then another knock before whoever was on the other side started banging hard on it. Pushing myself up, I moved to the door and ripped it open. “What?” I snapped. Morgan stood there glaring at me. I raised a brow in order to repeat my question.  
    “We are leaving first thing in the morning. Maddie wants to drive to Tamworth before we go to the Hunter Valley.” I saluted and went to close the door, but his foot was in the way.  
    “Something else, your highness?”
      “Are you gonna act like a spoilt brat who’s lost your favourite toy the whole time?”  
    I narrowed my eyes and tried to fight back the urge to beat the shit out of him, I gripped the door harder. “Nope. As soon as my backup gets here, I’m gone.”  
    A flash of surprise crossed his face before he steeled his expression. “What about your contract?”  
    “It only says I have to provide someone for you. It doesn’t say that it has to be me. I think given the circumstances, we can agree that I’m probably not the best person to be doing this job. Conflict of interest and all.” Morgan stepped back and looked at me in curiosity, so I spoke again. “It’s hard to protect someone you want something bad to happen too.”  
    Morgan snorted. “Noted.”  
    I watched as he turned his back to me and walked away. I stepped back to close the door and saw Daniel watching me.  
    “Morgan isn’t a bad guy, ya know,” said Daniel.  
    “He has the girl I love.
