One foot after another.
Goodbye Devil… goodbye Hell…

I was going to ruin her.
I knew it the moment I laid eyes on her. She was too naive, too innocent.
I would wrap her in the darkness of my world till she no longer craved the light... only me.
I should walk away, leave her clean and untouched... but I won't.
I hold her delicate heart in my scarred fist and I have no intention of letting go.
It all started with a book... doesn't that sound crazy?
For your entire world to come crashing down around you over research for a book?
But that is what it felt like the moment I met him.
My world tilted. Nothing made sense any more.
I only know he became like a drug to me... and I shook with need till my next fix.

Captive Vow
Chapter One
Jack and Jill went up the hill to fetch a pail of water.
Jack fell down and broke his crown,
And Jill came tumbling after.
My momma used to hum that nursery rhyme. She used to hum it a lot. And on days she was stressed, anxious, or short fused,
