At a club barbeque we were shot up by enemies. I was with our VP's daughter and covered her body to shield her from the gunfire. Thankfully, she was spared from the bullets, but I wasn't as lucky. I could barely breathe and blood was effortlessly flowing out of my body. The club kept me alert until the paramedics got there, and the woman in the back kept me awake. She told me things and was kind. I knew in that moment I wanted to see her again, but now it's months later and I think I've lost out on my chance of finding her again.

There’s a massive difference between wanting something, and needing it. That was a rude awakening the first time I saw her. Even though I wanted her, I refused to allow myself to have her. There were two reasons for that choice. One was a promise I made to myself long ago. The second is because she’s off limits. No matter how much I wanted her I couldn’t give into my desires. No matter how intriguing I find this woman, I simply cannot cross this line. That is - until secrets are revealed.

Never thought of myself wanting one woman. But there she is, and she’s unlike any other. I had her in my bed once, but then I screwed up. She’s stubborn and refuses to listen to reason. She’s also a fighter. When things happen and I find she’s not exactly who she claims to be, I have to make things right before it's too late. Even if it means getting down and dirty to do it. I’ve no problem getting bloody if it means she survives what’s to come.
