He'll do anything to keep his parents proud of him. That all changes when Reid meets a boy at a high school party. Grayson Clarke. He also happened to wake up half naked with Grayson in bed with him the next morning. Luckily, Reid will never have to see Grayson again and he can forget all about his scandalous night.

"You are mine!" He roars. "I will do whatever it takes to make you know that. Whether it means I lock you up in a prison and throw away the key." Footsteps come rushing into the dining room, and I turn to see multiple men--guards I suppose, flanking one another. Each of their hands rest on things within their jackets. Which i can only guess are guns. What else would they be? He waves them off and stalks towards me, standing behind my chair. I try to turn my head to look behind me, at him, but his hands move to the sides of my face, stopping me. "I can give you the world Mia. I am no fool. I know that love takes time, and I will give you as much as it takes. But you are mine."
