Forever in My Life

Marc was back. And he wanted Traci. She belonged to him whether she realized it or not.
He knew she’d been with someone else for the past two years. He could put that aside, she’d been with him first. He’d taught her everything she knew.
Traci had children now. The oldest, Matt was just a toddler. She’d given birth to him almost exactly nine months after they’d met. Marc had never imagined having a family; it was something to consider. Chris had been the one that wanted a large family. His heart was heavy thinking of his brother.
Hamilton Ranch International was successful. The Chilean vineyards produced top selling crops that were used in value wines the world over. The Australian vineyards had been difficult but were coming into their own. He could afford to spend a little time in the United States.
Traci had grown as a woman. She wasn’t the broken girl he’d found in his brother’s arms that fateful day. He still regretted that moment of anger. No, she didn’t need him anymore. She could fight her own battles and was wealthy in her own right. Hell, her picture was all over New York City on taxis and billboards, even in the occasional magazine he glanced at.
Chris had done an amazing job of helping Traci regain her physical and emotional self. Whatever she was today or became tomorrow, she owed to his brother Chris. So if she didn’t need him emotionally, or financially how would he win her over? He wondered if the spark between them could be re-ignited. He’d have to be patient, and Marc wasn’t a patient man.
