What more can a man ask for when you have everything that you want. The only thing Ido want is for this not to fall apart again. I know there is something more to this; there is something eating her up inside that she is not willing to share. I want to be there; I want to be the man that makes it better, that takes it all away. I will find out what it is. I will do anything to protect the woman I love. My mom is still fragile even though she puts on a brave face; I can only imagine what seven years of isolation would do to you. I catch her staring into the nothingness now and then still. I don't want to expose her to anything that she is not ready for yet. I don't know what it even is. I am going to protect her from everything I possibly can. “Mom, is it okay if I put you on the far side of the house?” “For damn sure. I don't want to hear the moans and screams.”  Dominic only but bursts out laughing, “We don't scream. Maybe moan.  But defini

There comes a stage in your life that you question everything. Why have you been placed here walking the path that you are walking? Is it by your own doing or by someone else? Did your path get chosen for you, or did you choose it? Did you meet the people you met by chance or by fate? You fall in love, and none of this seems to matter; there is nothing that can burst that bubble. Life is perfect, everything has fallen into place, and it all is perfect. You walk into a relationship with trust, you give it, and you earn it. No secrets, no half-truths, honesty, and love all the way. Then you meet Ava Brown, also known as Madison Owens. And your bubble is burst in an instant. “What does it say?” I do not even want to utter the words and let Dominic read for himself. “My fuck Trayton, that is bad. What the fuck are you going to do?” “I need to confront her. I can't just keep quiet. Not about this” “She is going to be pissed that you checked

I have a newfound drive, something that I feel strongly about, something that is going to give a man like me a sick kind of pleasure. I am changing my aim, forget corrupt businessmen and mob bosses that cannot keep their crew in order. I want men like Seth Williams; I want to take what I can from them, make them suffer. She has not left the house since the day she told me, and she does not want to leave either. Mom says she spends her day up here in the room; she does not eat; all she does is sleep. I don't know what to do, how I get her to carry on living. She is fading away, and it is my fault. I had to go scratching; I had to go open up old wounds. “Baby girl.” “Yes baby.” “Is there anything that I can do for you?” “No, I am okay, baby.” “Can I bring you water?” “Chips?” “No, I am fine.” “Pizza?” “I don't like pizza.” “Ice cream?” “It sounds like you want to make me fat.”

What would you do to save the one that you love? How far would you go? Would you do anything even though it means that you could lose them in the end? Is it really worth it in then? …WITH THE GIRLS AT HOME…  Emma has just finished talking to Dominic on the phone. She turns to Becca with great worry, “Dominic phoned. He said we must go faster, or Tray is going to do something he is going to regret.” Becca immediately looks at here, “What the fuck are you talking about?” “He is going to fuck a woman from the Bureau to get the asshole's address.” “Is he fucking crazy.” “No, he is fucking desperate. We have to go faster. Ava will leave him if she finds out what the fuck he did.” “Never mind leaving him. She will never fucking speak to him again.” …Trayton POV… Staring at Riley, I cannot help but be shocked,  “You really play a hard game. Nothing comes fucking free with you.” “You should know it by

I am sitting here in this godforsaken place waiting for the women I love more than life itself to wake up. I want her to wake up and look her in the eyes and know that I am not leaving her in here. I am not losing her for seven years as I did with my mom. I don't want to lose her; I can't lose her. I will not be able to live if I don't have her in my life, have her by my side if I can not see that beautiful smile or hear her laughter. This morning I had to pack up our lives; it was the hardest decision I ever had to make. I had to decide for her, a decision I have no right to make. But I have to save her; I have to save her from the monster the monster created inside her. I am scared to see the look on her face when she realized what I have done.  Then she opens her eyes. “Hey baby.” “Hey baby girl.” “Where are we?” “It's a place that is going to make you better.” “There is nothing wrong with me.” “Baby girl, they need to
