know you. Did Camden put you up to this?"
    "Who? No. Listen, I just need to talk to Shane."
    "Kaine?" Shane called, walking into the kitchen. "Who was at the...Jessica? What are you doing here?"
    Kaine spun around and pressed her hand to her mouth. "You know her," she said, stunned.
    "Yeah, she works at my firm. Why...Oh, no. No, Kainie. This has nothing to do with..."
    "Fuck you!" Kaine screamed. "You lying sack of shit!"
    "Jesus, Kaine, stop. I barely know her. This is...this is insane. Jessica, tell my wife that there’s nothing going on between us."
    Jessica bit her lip and looked down. "I’m pregnant."
    "Ok, great," Shane snapped. "Congratulations. Now tell my wife that I never touched you."
    Jessica’s eyes filled with tears. "There must have been something wrong with the condom you used."
    Shane’s mouth dropped open when he realized what was happening. "That motherfucker. I’m going to kill him. And you. Get the fuck out of my house, you lying bitch," he spat at Jessica.
    Jessica scoffed and shook her head. "I should have known this is how you’d react after all the disgusting things you made me do. I just came here to tell you that I don’t want anything to do with you anymore. I quit. And I don’t want your shitty child support. You’re crazy."
    "GET OUT!" He yelled. Jessica quickly turned and ran out the door, slamming it shut behind her. "GOD FUCKING DAMMIT!" He yelled, picking up a plate and flinging it against the wall. Kaine flinched as it shattered. He turned to look at her. "Stay away from me," she managed.
    "No. You need to listen to me."
    "I don’t have to listen to shit. I want a divorce," she sobbed. This was her worst nightmare coming to life.
    "Kaine, you can’t be serious," he said in a low, steady voice as he tried to control his rage. "You know Camden Lawson is behind this. How can you even believe her?"
    She stormed up to him and slapped him in the face. "Stop using Camden as an excuse!" She screamed, pushing him. "You JUST TOLD ME that you didn’t even know anybody named Jessica, you liar!" She shoved him again.
    He grabbed her arms to keep her from hitting him again. "Stop it," he snapped. "I don’t even really know her. She works for my firm. I didn’t even think of her when you said the name Jessica. Everyone knows someone named Jessica. That’s not what I meant."
    "Let go of me!" she yelled, thrashing in his arms.
    "No. Not until you calm down."
    "LET GO OF ME!" She screamed as loud as she could. He clamped his hand over her mouth. "Kaine, stop screaming. Just stop for a second. Please."
    She wasn’t listening. All she could feel was his hand on her face.
    You’re gonna fuck me like you fucked him.
    She went limp in his arms and his eyes widened. "Oh, shit. Oh my god. Kainie, I’m so sorry. I didn’t mean..." He let her slide to the floor and loosened his grip on her. "I’m so sorry," he repeated softly. "Talk to me, baby. You’re ok. Look at me."
    He looked into her light grey eyes and smoothed her hair. "You’re ok, baby. Nobody’s going to hurt you. You’re safe."
    She blinked and her eyes focused on him slightly. "You ok?" He asked softly.
    "Daddy?"
    Shane looked up at a terrified Adam. "Hey, buddy. Mommy tripped and fell. She’s ok though."
    "I’m scared," he whimpered. Shane flinched, feeling terrible. He never wanted his son to have to wake up to screaming in the middle of the night like he had before his father left. "It’s ok. Come here."
    Adam walked tentatively over and climbed into Shane’s lap. Kaine smiled softly at him and Shane breathed a sigh of relief. "You ok, peanut?" She softly asked. He nodded sleepily. "Can you take him back to bed?" She asked Shane, not looking at him. "I’d like to lay down."
    "I’m not leaving you here," he quietly said. "Not like this."
    "I’m fine," she assured him. "Just go. I’ll be up in a bit."
    He reluctantly picked up Adam and carried him back upstairs to his bedroom. He was in a hurry for Adam to fall asleep, but
