All Chapters of 8 Seconds - The Cowgirl and the Doctor: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

RaykaAs I think about how to get out of this situation, Gael quickly goes around me, and I see that he holds Kaleo's wrist and with his other hand he takes him by the collar.I feel the grip on my arm disappear and Gael pushes Kaleo backwards who staggers a few steps before stopping.“Don't you ever dare touch her again without permission.” Gael says angrily.“Just because you're fucking her, you think you can touch me like that?” Kaleo retorts.He comes at Gael who gives him a blow to the throat, making Kaleo fall to his knees with his hand on his neck, he seems to have difficulty breathing. I can't allow this situation to escalate into a physical assault issue.“Gael, please stop.” I grab his arm and he turns to me.“I am sorry Rayka, I am not violent, I just lost my mind with the way he acted towards you.”I like his gentle way, I see that he thinks that my request was for fear of the violence he acted, when I just don't want him to have problems for defending me or that because o

RaykaWe arrive at the food-truck, there are three people in front of us in line, Gael stands next to me and turns to me.“You know when Bryan was telling me about your dad and Kaleo, it seemed to me that your dad is very jealous of you.”I control myself not to laugh, because it seems that he is afraid of the old man.“He is a little, but I think every father should be like that, and since I am an only child, he's become more protective than usual.”“It could be, I have three sisters at home, my father was never very protective, he said that disappointments are part of life.”“He's not wrong, my dad is protective, but he's never stopped me from living my life.”“He only tends to threaten his exes after they break up.”“Remember what I said about not generalizing?” I ask and he nods. “Your turn not to do that, I only dated Kaleo seriously and I don't think anyone can blame him for what he did, not least because he didn't do anything that terrible.”“Rayka calm down.” Gael asks, huggin

RaykaWe eat in silence, I am finishing the potatoes when my cell phone starts ringing and I see its Kaneki, I imagine he has some news, by now he must have managed to board the Sovereign to take the farm. I hope he took my threat seriously and it's not Kaleo on the other end of the line.“There you go.” I say as I pick up.“Hi Rayka.” Kaneki speaks. “We just loaded Sovereign on the truck Paul sent as soon as he's settled at the farm I will let you know.”“That's right Kaneki and thanks again.”“Help yourself if you need anything just ask.” Speak and hang up.They were pretty fast, but it's no surprise, when Powell's name is in the conversation, everything happens at lightning speed. At least now my boy will be in a safe and quiet place and will soon meet his new home.“All right, Rayka?” Ness asks.“Yes, they are already taking Sovereign to the farm.”“Rayka, I know this is none of my business and you don't want anyone getting involved, but can I ask you a question?” Allan asks.I im

RaykaAs soon as I get on stage, the lead singer comes up and hugs me, and even though I am surprised, I return the gesture. Although he is young, he is very handsome, but I have never liked boys younger than me, and I throw my hat away if he is over twenty.“I have always liked blondes, but seeing your beautiful brunette I will change, because your beauty is so great that it is making me fall in love.”“Rayka, tell us how it was for you to ride that bull tonight?” Asks the other singer.“It was exciting.”“And you didn't feel a bit scared?”“Of course, I did, fear makes us cautious, we just can't let it incapacitate us. And having rodeo in our DNA helps a little bit.” I laugh.“I am not sure if it helped, but the fact is that you put on a great show. "Now tell me, are you single, engaged, married, separated, widowed or in a relationship?" I ask another singer in the band.” Asks another singer in the band.I find this option funny, it fits well with Liz's situation with Bryan, since h

RaykaWhen we arrive at the hotel, the girls say good night and go up to their rooms, and although I don't know how long Liz and Bryan will take to arrive, I believe that if it is fast Gael will not leave soon after, and although it is very late, I don't think it will be nice to stay in the lobby armchairs talking and much less kissing, in the lounge that has in my suite there is a sofa that we can be a little more comfortable.At the stadium Gael said he didn't expect anything else for today, I hope he told the truth.“Gael, do you agree to come up to the room with me to talk, just talk.” I repeat so that there is no doubt.“That's fine, but if you don't feel comfortable, we can stay right here.”“It's not that, I just didn't want you to have any hope of anything more.”“Rest assured I don't.”I hold my ogre babies in one arm and hold out my hand to him, heading for the elevator. As soon as the elevator doors close, I let go of his hand and run my finger along the belt loop of his pa
