This book follows straight on from the conversation were Charisma ended the relationship with Keegan.
Keegan is trying to deal with his loss.
It is a race against time to find Chloe alive.
Charlotte gives birth and there is a problem that the family...
".... Budge up, let me get in this bed... yo ass is always taking up all the room.... Some things definitely never change.." Keegan said to Charisma after he had said his goodbyes to Nash.
"I don't take up all the bed?...
"Oh you very much do... you used to leave me with the smallest space right on the edge... While you got to spread all the way out.." he smirked.
"Nash didn't seem himself?." She said propping herself up and looking at Keegan as he lay next to her.
He took a deep breath, "he's not well...
"Oh...
"He's got cancer.. testicular cancer... he needs chemotherapy... you know Nash he fights this shit all of the way dot I'm the only person he's told he hasn't even said anything to Leilani yet...
"W can't believe that he is sick.. and why won't he tell to her, she is a really nice girl she will help him. She isn't like any of the other girls that he's had before...
"Hmm... because she's not you...." He said to her.
She sat up and shook her head. "That has nothing to do with me, he knows my heart and where I stand on this...
"He knows... but, I know how easy you are to talk to, you have this calming ora about you... the type of thing where if you feel really shit and you can't see a way out of something you make it all become clear..."
"Well it is a real shame that I can't do that for myself.."
He put his hand on her face and stroked her cheek. " You are going to be just fine. I'm not gonna let you out of my sight and I will take on any motherfucker who comes for you.... I know you couldn't handle your feelings and you felt that you had to leave me to be able to get through this... But I'm hoping you are seeing how closer this is bringing us now..."
She nodded. " I was running from everything, sometimes I wanna run from one room to another just to break away from how I feel, like I'm trying to leave myself behind... but I can't... then I tried to distance myself from everybody because I thought that might help but it didn't...
"What about me?.."
"I am so ashamed... I'm yours... yet... now I just feel dead inside and dirty and I don't wanna look at your face because I feel like I betrayed you.." a tear dropped onto her cheek and Keegan wiped it. " you know you're the only person that can ever take my shit right..."
he shrugged his shoulders. "Just like you're the only one who can ever take mine.... you have always taken mine and you know it from day one...
" I didn't want you to look at me and think that I'm a slut, that I'm any mans...I didn't want you to look at me the way that I am feeling about myself..."
"C... I could never do that... how many times have we been here? I fucked around on you, you had a whole relationship with Nash!... but nothing will change the fact that I love you, and this wasn't yo fault.... You are everything that I'm here for. I'm alive because I've got you in my life, I've got to protect you and raise my kids... kids that we brought into this world.... we did that together.. me and you C.... we raised our whole family, we are a unit.... Through thick and thin through the bad and the good... only... until death do we part..."
