Chapter Ten

I stare mesmerized with tears just flowing down my face. I start to sob uncontrollably and can’t seem to stop. I have so much emotion running through me, and all I can say is, “I love you Jax. I love you so much.” He looks at me bewildered with an uncertain look in his gaze. He goes to open the door and it’s still locked.

“Open the door, beautiful. Open the door,” he demands in a gruff voice.

I stretch my arm out with a shaking hand, my whole body seems to be trembling as I unlock the door. He has it open before my hand is off the lock and I fall forward into his arms. He wraps his arms around me, lifts me up, and closes the door locking it behind us.

“Hey, beautiful, what’s wrong?” he asks as he wipes the tears off my face.

I just continue to sob, I can’t talk. I shake my head as he continues to whisper in a crooning voice. I’ve held off for the last month, keeping all of this to myself. I should have discussed this with him before.

He hears the timer on the oven go off. He moves me to the couch, sets me down on it, and goes and turns off the oven and removes the fries. He comes back into the living room and sits beside me, picking me up and putting me in his lap. I am still a mess but slowly the water works slow down. He takes a Kleenex off the end table and mops my face.

“Are you going to tell me why you’re crying and sobbing like this. Are you sick or something?” he asks me, worriedly.

I deny being sick with a quick shake of my head. My head is tilted while gazing into his beautiful brown eyes, my lips trembling.

“You’re scaring me. What’s wrong?” he asks while he still rubs my back.

As he continues to rub my back, I calm down even more. The constant feel of him helps with that. I can’t go through what I went through before.

“I am going to tell you, but please don’t interrupt until I’m done. Then if you need or want to ask questions, I will answer. You may decide to just leave,” I murmur in a low voice.

I scoot off his lap and he looks so shattered that I take his hands in mine. I know I am fucking this up, although this is just as hard on me.

He looks me in the eyes as I begin, and I look downward. “When I was fifteen, I was kidnapped coming off a park trail. Debbie was with me when we were both taken. He ended up dumping her along the side of the roadway in a ditch. She laid there overnight until someone found her. He had beaten the bloody hell out of her and had left her for dead.” I sniffle as I continue, “I was beaten bloody, broken bones, eyes were swollen shut, it took two months for the marks to heal on the outside.
