He killed to protect me before learning my name. Everyone keeps telling me that Vex is a scary man. A man that I should stay from. But when I’m with him all my fears disappear… and I have a lot of fears that have built up inside of me over the years. Never in my life have I felt safer than when I’m in his arms. Dahlia lives in a different world from me. One with white picket fences and children playing in the yard. Mine is filled with death and destruction. And I’m a master of both. With a single look, wise people run from me, but not her. Trouble follows her every step when she enters my world, and I know should push her way for her own good. But I can’t. Dahlia needs to say no… she needs to run the other way, because that’s the only way I’ll ever let her go.
