MAISIEI was cocooned in the strength of his embrace in that moment so the rest of the world simply fell away into insignificance.There was only the all-consuming tidal wave of emotion that threatened to sweep me under every time our bodies reunited after even the briefest separation.I was home with the man who saw me and seemed to want me even after knowing the real me.Most people only want the happy, obedient, beautiful version of us, while the darkness within is ours alone to grapple with. No one loves that shadowed side with the flaws and imperfections we try so desperately to conceal.But here before me stands a man who accepts me completely, darkness and all without asking me to change or morph into someone I’m not.I wanted to confess my feelings for him in that moment of vulnerability.But I feared I would come to regret the admission. I could only feel a profound sense of certainty settling over me like a warm blanket. These emotions are real and undeniable. I cared for hi

MAISIE“Aren’t you punks supposed to be at home studying or something?” I called out with my hands on my hips. “Pretty sure that kid doesn’t want to waste his time hanging out with a bunch of delinquents like you losers.”The leader’s head whipped around at the sound of my voice and his eyes narrowed dangerously. “Well well, if it isn’t a Mrs. Goody Two-Shoes coming to save the day,” he sneered. “Last warning, old lady – mind your own business if you know what’s good for you.”I refused to be cowed as I pulled out my phone and started filming, making sure to get a clear shot of their faces. “Yeah? Well how about you leave the kid alone before I take this little video straight to the cops, huh? Then you idiots can learn some manners the hard way.”That seemed to be the final straw. “Give me that phone, you piece of shit!” the leader snarled while taking a menacing step towards me.I held up a hand and stood my ground. “You’ll get nothing but a fat lip if you don’t back off and show som

Jason watched them go with an expression of disgust etched on his harsh features before turning his attention to the boy who had yet to stir from where he lay crumpled in the filthy alleyway.He crossed the distance in a few long strides, dropping into a crouch beside the unconscious teen."Hey, kid," he said gruffly, giving the boy's shoulder a gentle shake. "Can you hear me? You need to wake up now."When there was no response, Jason's jaw ticked with barely concealed concern.He reached out to carefully probe at the back of the kid's skull and his fingers came away sticky with blood."Shit," he hissed. "That's a nasty knock you took there."With what looked like surprising tenderness for a man of his size and stature, Jason carefully gathered the unconscious teen into his arms, cradling him against his broad chest.He straightened to his full, intimidating height with a low grunt of effort before turning on his heel and striding back toward the car with the same purposeful intensit

MAISIE"I noticed you didn't object to all the touching that happened between you two," Jason’s voice sounded much closer than I expected, laced with an undercurrent of accusation.I spun around, startled to find him standing just a few feet away. "What do you mean?" I asked cautiously.He closed the distance between us in two strides and his larger hand engulfed mine in a firm grasp. "You know exactly what I mean," he said in a low rumble.I tried to pacify him by squeezing his hand. "Philip and I are just friends now, Jason. There's nothing for you to get upset about."He squeezed back, his voice taking on a rough, brutally honest edge. "I want to hug you as violently as my feelings for you when I'm jealous. Don't let him touch you like that again!"His blunt words stunned me into silence. Part of me wished I could match his frankness - just confess that I loved him still, that no one else could ever come close. But if I admitted that now, it would feel like surrendering without put

KARINAMy chest heaved with ragged gasps as I clutched at my bruised neck, the sting of Jason's fingers still burning into my skin like a brand. The man I'd loved, the man I'd spent years loyally by his side building an unshakable alliance with, had just turned into a snarling beast right before my eyes - all because of her.Maisie.Even just thinking her name made it feel like a venomous curse on my lips. That woman had been nothing but a ghost, a faded relic of Jason's past that he claimed to have buried and moved on from ages ago. But now here she was, rising from the damn ashes like a phoenix to swoop in and try to snatch him away from me.Using the edge of Jason's desk for support, I dragged myself back up to my feet, my knees still feeling weak and unsteady beneath me. But it wasn't fear making me tremble - it was fury. A deep, bitter rage that clawed at my insides like a caged animal, making my heart hammer against my ribcage.Jason had humiliated me. Rejected me.
