I unconditionally and irrevocably love every damaged part of him. And for the boy who doesn’t believe in love, he will always and forever have mine.

I never thought someone so good and genuine existed until her. The more I saw of her, the more addicted I became. Every time I was around her, she would destroy some of the darkness that lurked inside of me. She made the bad shit in my life seem not so terrible. Then before I knew it, I had fallen for a girl from another world.

So without her knowledge, I laid claim. I warned every guy to stay away from her, and they all did because no one was brave enough to fuck with me.

Before I can think better of it, I reach out and slip my finger in the waist band of her skirt and yank her against me. She gasps at the feel of my hard cock against her stomach. “You look really good tonight, Jules.”

It’s the first time anyone has said those words to me, and it makes my chest hurt so fucking bad that I want to rip my heart out.

“I’m sick of this macho bullshit. I’ve gone through a lot to be here, and I haven’t seen him in five fucking years, Cooper! I’m serious; if he sends me away after everything we’ve been through, then… I’m done.”

Lying back, I close my eyes and think about Julia. For the last week, it was the memories I have of her that kept me alive. Every time one of those assholes came in to torture us, I would retreat into my mind and think about her.

“After seeing the tattoo don’t you understand that you did? The angel is you, Julia. You were always there with me in the darkness. Every time those fuckers came in to torture us, I went into my mind and thought about you.” My breath seizes in my lungs, his words stealing my breath. “I would think about your smile and your eyes,” he says, his thumb brushing my cheek. “Then I would think about the night I was buried inside your warm body, and I’d completely lose myself in you. It made everything I went through bearable, it made me fight to get the fuck out of there.”

“Oh yeah, then who the fuck is this whore?” She points to the shocked looking brunette. “This is Sarah Miller, my sister’s friend. She’s a jewelry designer. I’m here picking up your fucking engagement ring from her.”

“Oh my god, you have a gun? In my house?” I whisper harshly. He looks at me like I’m stupid. “Of course I have a gun.”

He throws a possessive arm around Anna’s shoulders, his eyes narrowing at me, sizing me up. Yep, just like me.
