Sweet Treat

by Victoria Snow

A Halloween party. A chance encounter. A blooming relationship. An explosive demise.

Sounds like a regular college romance, right?

But for me, it was four years of my life I’ll never forget.

I went to that Halloween party a single, curious college girl and left as the apple of a man’s eye.

As Brett’s dedicated little sweet treat.

Four wonderful years… and one night is all that it took.

One night and my life was shattered.

I watched him walk away…

And today, I’m sitting in his billion dollar company interviewing for a job.

Memories resurface, secrets are revealed, and…

I am making the same mistake.

Falling for a cheating, heartbreaking man for a second time.

I shouldn’t be doing this…he’s ex for a reason.

Not only that, he’s my boss!

Mistakes have consequences,

And mine is evident from the two positive lines on the pregnancy test.
