"Any time I could have called for help, but I was too forgiving. I could have fought back, but I didn't have the courage or strength. I could have taken her and left, but I knew the torture wouldn't stop there. I could have put a gun to my head and pulled the trigger, but I knew that freedom was near and I couldn't leave her like that. I could have done so many things to escape this misery, but I was too naive to realize it. I just wish that I had a savior or a hero to rescue me from all of those painful moments; but we don't always get what we want, do we? All of that is in the past now and I need to forget my wrongs and learn from my mistakes." Delilah Rose Kingsley is terrified of going home, of what will happen when she turns the doorknob to her front door. She needs a savior, a guardian angel, a hero.
