Summary: Aileen has lost everything in her life, she was now forced to live with her aunt. After years of being mistreated and abused, she decided to take matters into her own hands; leading to a fatal mistake. The aspiring singer not only lost her freedom but also her future, or so she though. PREVIEW: There was a deafening silence between us...until. "Did you kill her?" He asked, getting closer to me and raising an eyebrow. I didn't know how to respond; I was overwhelmed with scary emotions and memories. I wept until I felt his arms around me. "I didn't mean too...I had to get... out of there", I managed to squeak out in between sniffles. The hug only lasted a few minutes, the air felt dry and cumbersome. I felt the sand shift back and forth between my naked toes, like a pendulum. J.D took a step back and raised his hands cradling the back of his head. The pressure was building the more he looked at me, shocked. "J.D please...say something." PS. THE IMAGES AND VISUALS USED IN THIS STORY DOES NOT BELONG TO ME.

"If you love me, you won't leave me." Jessie has believed those words from her boyfriend, Josh, since senior year of high school. She loves him and doesn't want to leave him. Not even when he shouts at her and hits her. Jessie's best friend, Kolleen, can't stand seeing her in that situation. With a bit of convincing - and the worst beating she'd ever received - Jessie agrees to move into an apartment with Kolleen. But not long after, Jessie is scared the worst of her nightmares will soon become a reality. Josh goes missing, and suddenly Jessie would swear she's being followed. One night changes everything, and one person soon changes Jessie's outlook. A responding officer from that fateful night begins to seek her out, at first claiming it's part of his job. As she spends time with her new friend outside of his job, she starts realizing that her feelings are evolving. After being abused for over a year, Jessie is terrified she's falling in love. What's even more terrifying is that he might be, too. She isn't ready for love. Not yet. She makes up her mind that if he is falling, and if he does love her, he'll wait for her to be ready, and if she loves him, she won't let herself hurt him. Can the words that used to cage her in really be the key to her freedom? --- Featured On: @NA: Take a seat and let it be | Mature Content and 18+ reading list @NA: You deserve the world | Mental Health reading list Ambys Top Picks New Adult 2023
