I decided I want to change it a bit, so things are more clear and the story will move on more naturally... I did finish the story, but there are mistakes to it which I want to resolve. Anyhow for the time being, I will leave this story here, and work on the new and improved version on my computer. Thanks for understanding, and I hope this doesn't stop you from reading this story :)

I didn't marry him out of love, nor because I liked him. I didn't marry him for his family money or wealth, or for popularity. Truth be told, I could care less about this guy and who he was. I Married the Bad Boy for protection. Kami's life was hell. Until the bad boy came along to save her. She never had an easy life. Most of her teenage years, all she had were bruises and bad memories. Her mother had married another man whose happiness came from hurting her. But when Brandon appeared in her life, some things were about to change. He had seen the bruises, and how it pained her. So he did something about it. He married her to protect her. But did Kami make the right decision marrying him? All the men in her life either left her, like her father did, or hurt her, as was the case with her step-father. There was no guarantee that Brandon wouldn't leave her, or hurt her. What would happen to her life now that she was married to the bad boy? Will he be able to keep her from harm?
