Status Updates From Take Me

This one was tough to get into at the start. Dario was an absolute ASS from the start, but near the middle begins to soften. Sara has the most sheltered life - it's truly unimaginable. I can't even put myself in her shoes in any way. When I read a book, I always imagine the way I would write the next chapter or how it will play out - can't with this! And the cliff hanger at the end... !?! Just wow. I wasn't ready.

see Sarah’s reaction & tell Dario he didn’t tell her? Dario tell Sarah go his apartment. Sarah ask if she his wife? He tell her do what he say. Sarah yell is she his wife? yes or no? He breaks the stare & she knows answer. If he say no, it’s a betrayal if he say yes it’s a lie.

at her like holding back love & joy. Willa say there cuz Oria say he may need help. He say if he need her help he would’ve called her. Oria say Sarah all packed, ready to go. No, Dario say sorry Willa came all this way but she need go back f where she belong. Dario tell Sarah but Willa say baby, he say don’t her f call him that. Willa ask if that any way talk to his wife? Dario go pale, so does Sarah, Willa angry

fing everything up, she going to island. She give her passport & tickets. Sarah say she making Dario lunch. Oria say she making him target & gonna get person she loves killed. Not about her anymore. Sarah go down hall to find Dario. Oria/Sarah in hallway when woman she doesn’t know step out elevator & hugs Oria. Oria say Willa there to take her. Sarah say no. Dario comes out, look from Willa to Sarah. Way he look

anymore. He say they want her to control her. Dario/Oria go talk Nico thru screen. Waiting 10 minutes now & both panicking. Oliver come in & tell him sheriff department which infiltrated by colonia has been raiding all over town, something definitely up. Oliver say all places raided have greenhouse on roof. Oria come into Sarah place, put suitcase on bed & tell her pack, all demanding. Why? Cuz she hurting Dario &

stupid & didn’t think of dangers. Colonia & Sergio both want her. Dario convinced colonia outside, saw her come out. He won’t live w/out her, he’ll get her back. He run outside, he hear her, turns & she hold out bag & say she did it. He lifts her up, hugs her so tight. He kisses her so much she ask what happened.

He tell her where go, only give her one thing buy. She leave, he has Connor follow her. He watched her walk across street from window & now waiting see her walk back. Connor call can hardly talk, say she other & Dario takes off running down stairs. He so

thought her dad had kill her mom. They got her mom out but she ran before he could send her to island w/others. He says she’ll b safe there. Colonia never stop looking for him & by extension her. If she there & safe she’ll never really b free. He take out suitcase, begin packing her things, she doesn’t want go. He tells her she moving in w/him down hall & she relieved.

She follow him, say Wanda died last year, he say she’s one of his. It was closed casket cuz was no body. Her dad said her mom too badly beaten for open casket. She always wondered why she’d been outside so long that she was attacked when women always escorted. She had

women he saved, all important to him but he never had sex w/any of them. He takes her ring that look like snowflake, one he got at pawn shop, she been looking for it. He throws it saying it’s junk, not worthy of someone he cares for. He saved 27 women over 12 years, her mom was one of first. Any of them colonia? All of them were.
