Gio
She was my best friend's little sister. That meant she was forbidden to me. Women like her didn't belong in our dark world. Didn't stop me though . . . I went where I shouldn't and lost track of the dangers that lurked around us. My irresponsibility cost my best friend, her brother, his life.
I left home to keep her safe . . . and I knew leaving would break her heart. Guilt made me stay away, and I found peace in knowing she was better without me. But ,when I saw her again I forgot all the reasons why I was bad for her. All the reasons why I left. Leaving her once was hard. Leaving her twice feels like a mistake I don't want to make. Especially when I think she's in trouble . . .
Lyssa
When I saw Gio again I caved and gave into the temptation of him. God forbid if he finds out my secrets. He has a son he didn't know about and I made a deal with a devil who wants my body as payment if my father can't pay his debts.
When I'm with Gio I want him to save me, but I don't want him to break me like he did last time. I want to be his like I was before, and remember when we belonged to each other.
