Travis eyes immediately darkened as his exes name fell off of Taylors lips. This couldn't be true, couldn't be happening. He had spent so many years trying to erase her from his life his memory and now when he was trying to move forward she somehow managed to sneak her way back into it.

"How do you know her name?" he growled lowly and suddenly the gentle hold he had on her tightened, his eyes darkening.

Taylor swallowed hard seeing his reaction. She knew after what brina had told her he wouldn't be very happy with her bringing it up but after all he knew her ex an past and she thought after was had happened between the both of them, the timid yet growing affection.

"i-I picked it up earlier from someone n-not sure b-but she's your ex isn't she?" she tried carefully , narrowing her eyes slightly at her question. She was going to marry this man so soon, she should have a right to find out right? She had a right to know.

"WHERE THE FUCK DID YOU HEAR THAT NAME?" Travis screamed this time, rage taking over his body , causing him to hold onto the blondes arms tighter, leaving her suppressing a whimper despite the pain. She had to have answers.

"Bitt mentioned her okay? Why won't you tell me who she is and what happened to her?" her voice got a little bit louder as well but she stood her ground, was insistent. She had to know what was going on.

"NONE OF YOUR FUCKING BUSINESS OKAY? YOU ARE JUST SOMEDUMB LITTLE NAÏVE GIRL OKAY? YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO ASK QUESTIONS; YOU HAVE NO FUCKING IDEA WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT. I DON'T EVER WANNA FUCKING HEAR THAT NAME FROM YOU AGAIN UNDERSTOOD?"

He screamed shaking her until she cried out in pain and he let go of her as if he had burned himself. Shit he didn't want to hurt her.

"what the hell happened Travis! Did you murder her? Is she dead? Is that your thing? You buy girls and whenever they annoy you you just get fucking rid of them?! Is that what you'll do to me when you get tired? " she screamed panic and anger lacing together.

"YOU HAVE NO FUCKING IDEA WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT; OKAY? YOU WANT ME TO BE A FUCKING VILLAIN? FINE I AM." He screamed grabbing her glass and throwing it against the wall, grabbing a plate next and shattering it on the expensive marble floors of the kitchen, making her shriek and start to cower together.

"IM NOT A ROMANCE NOVEL ENDING: IM NOT YOUR FUCKING PRINCE CHARMING SO STOP WITH YOUR FUCKING FANTASIES OF HAVING A LITTLE HAPPY FAMILY. I MAY NOT BE GOOD BUT YOU REALLY FUCKING THINK ID MURDER THE ONLY WOMAN I EVER LOVED LIKE THAT? ?"

Taylor had cowered together while he screamed and shouted, knowing all too well if he screamed like that that meant the house was empty despite the both of them. No one could help her now. Travis grabbed another plate an smashed it, a sharp pain shooting through Taylor body as she looked down seeing the blood.

One of the shards hard splintered and hit her leg, the blood starting to pill out immediately.

"shit god kitten I-I'm so sorry" Travis cursed moving to touch her again but she pulled back, her eyes filled with fear and hurt. She didn't know the man. He had hurt her. And he couldn't take it back.

"leave me alone." She breathed before turning around, feeling the blood run down her leg as she ran upstairs into her room, bursting into tears as she did so, closing the door behind her and heading straight to the shower.

It had become somewhat of a safe space and when the hot boiling water hit her skin it almost over tuned her sobs.

Travis had messed up, big time, he knew that. He had exploded just hearing her name on Taylors lips and then her accusation had only pushed him further though he knew she wasn't at fault. She had been curious and she had a right to ask.

This girl didn't know anything about him even tho she was going to marry him in just a few days and it was only normal she wanted to know about the only woman he had been with seriously for the past years. And he had hurt her.

He had hurt her and spilled her blood just after promising he would keep her save. He had promised to kill anyone that would ever hurt her and even though he really felt like swallowing his own bullet right now he knew he couldn't leave it at that. Taylor should never have to be afraid of him.

He heard her sobs and cries as he went up, the pounding water of the shower beating down as he moved in front of the room, sitting down and waiting until he heard her turn off the water. He had changed into a pair of sweats and a shirt, the bloody suit he had worn earlier in the wash now alongside Taylors stuff.

Taylor changed into one of the negligees Travis had gotten hair, doing her best to pad away the fresh blood with a little towel tho it stung really bad.

She gave up with a little sigh and went back into her bedroom dropping back onto the bed as she heard a little knock on the door.

She whipped her tears before getting up and going over to the door, not opening yet. "are you gonna shoot me if I open up?" she whispered the hurt in her voice obvious but she almost heard a little chuckle on the other side of the door.

"would I knock if I planned on it?"

She sniffed and moved to open the door, her eyes widening in surprise when she saw Travis. He was carrying a little Tray as she stepped inside too let him in guiding it over to the couch, where she took a seat.

To her surprise the man didn't sit next to her but kneeled before her, looking up to her with those beautiful green eyes.

"God I don't even know where to start. I'm so so incredibly sorry kitten, I never wanted to hurt you I never wanted to cause you any sort of pain. I-I spent the past years trying to erase her from my life and when I heard her name again, from your lips that is, I lost control and I'm so sorry for it.

I want you to be my future Taylor and you will be cause I will be your husband and you will be my wife in just 3 days and as much as I wanna close it, I'm also aware as my future you have a right to know about my past so if you can find it in yourself to hear me out, hear my side of things, I will do my best to show you why I reacted that way even tho it doesn't justify anything. I'm literally on my knees and begging you.

Please angle, please hear me out and let me take care of that" he whispered, caressing his thumb carefully over the skin on her leg. Taylor sighed softly but god she couldn't say no when he looked at her like that so she gave him a little nod and watched as h reached for the first aid kid on the tray as he started to explain.

"I met Kayla when I was just 22 so 7 years ago. She worked in the bar me and my brother used to talk business and in general for deals and what can I say I fell in love with her as she did with me. That point in my life I was still pretty new in the business.

I still had hope and faith in love and all and things seemed to be so perfect, well at least for a while. She was my first serious relationship, I tried so hard to impress her and woo her but I knew she also needed her space so when she told me she would do a world travel tour on her own I even helped her pack her suitcases.

While she was gone we basically had no contact, no matter how hard I tried so I did my best to focus on the business, started to take over higher positions. Around that time Jason started to think about retirement so that meant I had more responsibility and when Kayla came back I was already a big shot.

Now I know that was the only reason she even came back to me but back then I felt like the luckiest guy. We were toxic, fighting and hating each other before love bombing and there was a lot of asshole behavior on my part.

But I wanted to push through it because I loved her. That was until the day I found her cheating on me. With my intern that is too. She broke my heart and ever since then I have promised mybest not to fall in love again, I don't do love, I don't do relationships until... well until you.

And I hurt you and that's the worst thing I have ever done. I don't regret a lot but I know perfectly well I will regret that for the rest of my life. And I hope one day I can start to earn your forgiveness but until then I want you to know just how sorry I am"

Travis carefully put her leg down , finishing the bandage he had wrapped around her slender leg with a little bow, looking up to her with his big green eyes.

Could she ever forgive him?
