Sourcebook
Intro
Late into the night, the silence inside the house on Teller-Morrow’s property was heavy enough to suffocate. Jax sat alone at the kitchen table, a half-empty bottle of whiskey resting beside a glass he hadn't bothersome to refill. The quiet was a stark reminder of how completely the dust had settled—and how empty the room felt without the lingering tension of trying to fix something that had been broken for a long time.
It had been six months since he and Tara finally called it quits. A year of trying to play the part, of forcing a family dynamic that was constantly shadowed by everything he couldn't say, had ended precisely where it was bound to: with two people realizing that obligation wasn't the same thing as love. Abel was sleeping in the other room, safe, sound, and oblivious to the quiet collapse of the household.
Jax took a slow pull straight from the bottle, the amber liquid burning down his throat as his eyes drifted across the room, landing on the small notch in the doorway where he’d marked Abel's height last month. He had done what he thought was the right thing. He had stayed, he had severed ties, and he had built a wall between his life in Charming and the memory of cold Irish rain, quiet late-night conversations, and the girl who had made him feel human when his world was falling apart.
He reached into his pocket, pulling out his phone. The screen illuminated the dark room, casting a sharp blue light across his tired face.
His thumbs hovered over the keypad. He hadn't typed the number in well over a year and a half, but he didn't need to look it up. It had stayed etched in his mind, a lingering what-if he’d buried beneath patches, blood, and bad decisions. The liquor dulled the voice in his head telling him to put the phone away—the voice that reminded him he had chosen to walk away, to lock the door and throw away the key.
He didn't write a long message. He didn't offer an explanation or an apology for the months of deafening silence.
With a low exhale, Jax typed out three simple words and hit send, watching the message clear from the screen into the ether, crossing the ocean to Belfast before he could talk himself out of it.
