“Hey, doll face鈥︹€�

鈥淗aidyn?鈥� I yank the phone from Kashton鈥檚 hands and look at the screen to see it鈥檚 a video. He鈥檚 sitting on my couch, dressed in nothing but a pair of jeans. The phone is propped up against something on the coffee table.

I place my hand over my mouth to hold in my sob at the sight of him. This was last night鈥hen I saw my phone on the coffee table when he stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows in my living room.

鈥淭his isn鈥檛 how I wanted to tell you goodbye. But in our life, we rarely get what we want.鈥� A soft smile tugs at his lips. 鈥淵ou were my exception.鈥�

He bows his head, his right hand twirling his wedding ring around his finger as he looks at it. 鈥淚 knew that you were too good for me the moment I first saw you. That I鈥檇 never live up to the man you鈥檇 deserve. So I let you go鈥ut when you were placed back in my life, I couldn鈥檛 stop myself.鈥� He looks back at the phone and gives a soft smile.

Back in his life?

鈥淚鈥檝e done a lot of unforgivable shit in my life, but the best thing I ever did was make you my wife. I wish I could have done it differently. You deserved so much more than what I gave you. I should have gotten down on one knee and begged you to spend the rest of your life with me. I should have told you how much you changed me. That you showed me what being alive truly felt like. I always felt like I was missing something鈥y life was boring. Same thing over and over. And then you walked into my life with that amazing smile and when I looked into your eyes鈥擨 saw a future that I never thought existed鈥ot for a man like me, anyway.鈥�

A lump forms in my throat, and I blink to clear the tears from my eyes so I can see him on the screen.

鈥淚 knew you鈥檇 never give a man like me the chance at forever. So I forced your hand. I had to have Adam help me.鈥� I look up at Adam, and his green eyes are already on mine. Blinking the fresh tears away, I drop mine back to the phone. 鈥淏ecause I knew that鈥檇 be the only way I鈥檇 ever get you. And I just couldn鈥檛 pass up the opportunity to be your husband.鈥� He looks away from the camera as if he can鈥檛 look at me, and my chest tightens.

How dare he leave me this memory? Why break my heart twice? When I found him in the living room and asked if he regretted marrying me鈥e had just left me this video. He knew then exactly what he was going to do.

His blue eyes come back to the screen, meeting mine once again. 鈥淚鈥檓 sorry I couldn鈥檛 give you the forever you deserved, doll face. But I promise I gave you all I had left to offer.鈥�

The knot grows in my throat, and I can鈥檛 hold back the sob anymore as I remember what he said when I told him I chose to be with him forever. To some, forever is only a matter of seconds.

鈥淧lease know that I loved you more than anything in this world鈥nd when I walk out this door, I鈥檓 leaving a piece of myself behind with you because nothing short of forever would have been enough." He smiles, and I try to catch my breath. "You'll be safe at Carnage and my brothers will protect you." He leans forward and picks up the phone before speaking. "I love you, Charlotte.”

“Fuck, she was on fire. I understand it was anger, but it was sexy as hell. The way she barged into my house. The fact that she came prepared to shoot me had me hard as a rock. I wanted to rip off her clothes, pin her down on the floor, and fuck her ass while she held the gun to my face. It鈥檚 an adrenaline rush that I haven鈥檛 experienced in a long time.

For someone who has a cunt, she鈥檚 got balls.

I like it. It鈥檚 refreshing. She鈥檚 exactly what I鈥檝e been looking for in my repetitive life. Giving me something to do.”

“Fuck That! Annabelle Marie Schults belongs to me. So I will make sure whatever it is the Lords want her to do, she passes. Because once the birth control shot I had Gavin give her wears off, she won鈥檛 be getting another one. The only babies she鈥檒l be having are mine.”

“I like a woman who fights. One who thinks she can stand up for herself. It just means I鈥檒l have to work extra hard to keep her on her knees. It might require some chains and ropes, but that鈥檚 okay. Every woman deserves some accessories.”

“Two inches to the left, and it would have severed your femoral artery.鈥� Devin glares at him. 鈥淵ou would have bled out.鈥�

My son鈥檚 blue eyes meet mine as he smirks, and I shake my head. That鈥檚 a boy in love. 鈥淵ou know your mother once stabbed me.鈥� I chuckle at the memory.

His lips pull back with disgust. 鈥淕ross, Dad. I don鈥檛 want to know about any kinks you and Mom have.鈥�

鈥淵ou know they say sexual fetishes are hereditary,鈥� I add.

He makes a gagging sound, and Devin just laughs.”

“I was willing to give my life up for hers. Now she's giving me life. Nothing could be better.”
