When Ryle Kincaid was left in the dust five years ago, he never knew he could be loved again. 

He turned on himself, all his hate and anger driving him to isolate his heart from even the idea of love, or wanting.

Then he met Alba DeTamble. 

A strong, and kind, dark haired beauty. 

Alba brings her golden light into his life, and helps him forgive, and love, and cherish himself. 

She holds him when he wants nothing more than to run and hide. She loves him, more than he could ever have imagined being loved.

-

"If my daughter," he starts carefully his hand clenching and unclenching, "if she came to me and told me that her husband hit her. I'd never let her go back to him."

"Not even if she told you he was sick," I retort, "and willing to go through all the treatment in the world to fix himself if it meant he could love her without hurting her? What if he'd become a better man?"

My thoughts are reeling and my heart is racing.

"He's not sick!" Ryle's voice drops, and my heart jumps in my chest. "He's just scum."

'We both know we're not talking about a hypothetical person anymore.'

-

"Are you afraid of me?" He laughs a dry and brittle laugh.

"Deathly afraid." I confess, and it makes him shudder. 

"You're falling deep into a dark and lonely hole, and you have a clear way out. Yet you won't even lift a finger to help yourself. You're destroying the man I love, isolating him. You're leaving me behind with every breath, and it makes me so scared."
 
-

"True love, it begins and ends with us."

-

A romantic and whimsical love story between Ryle of 'It Ends With Us' and Alba  of 'Time Traveler's Wife'. 

*Need to edit the cringe out of this story but don't have the time. Enjoy.*

I barely make it a few steps before I feel his hand clamp down on my hair, yanking me back with terrifying force. "Going somewhere, little girl?" "P-please let g- ahh! Please! H-Hurts me!" "Afraid, are we now, baby?" His voice is a snarl now, filled with fury. "L-leave m-me," tears sting my eyes, but I refuse to let them fall. I'm scared of him, scared of what he'll do to my friend, scared of what he'll do to me. His grip on my hair tightens and I wince, choking back a sob. "Oh, why? Don't you like my hands on you, baby?" He mocks hurt that instantly turns back into anger. "But you were fine when that fucker touched you, ain't that right?" Then he pulls a silver knife out of his suit, twirling it lazily between his ink-covered knuckles and my blood freezes at the sight of that psychotic grin. ***** People quaked with fear at the sound of his name and me along with them. He was Demetrios 'the God' Nikolayev and he was first in command of Russian mafia. He was a true psychopath who enjoyed hurting people, and I hated him for that. The worst thing - he owned me. "Try to accept the darkness, because from now on, it will be your only light." I tried so hard, but I couldn't understand it back then. How possibly can darkness be light? ***** This is not a vanilla romance but a dark, toxic, perverted, obsessive story. The book contains mature themes such as foul language, bdsm, sexual and abusive content, kinks, blood, manipulation, etc. Please keep that in mind.

And as I was walking to put the shards in the garbage, I took one last look at myself in the broken shards. I made eye contact with my mirrored image, and I swore a solemn and silent oath to myself, "Never again." The forming of those words from my mouth had created a newfound feeling of freedom.

He meant the world to her until he set eyes on her and couldn't recognize the pain and afflictions behind it. He meant a different person to her until he took her just like one of the many girls running after him. He meant her as that person who wanted to save her instead of allowing her to slide a silent clasp knife against the cold veins. He meant her something more than a singer until he proved that wrong. But even after that she couldn't deny the fact of calling him her savior. Nothing could change that. A savior remains a savior. This story revolves around the two characters broken inside yet living for the sake of others.

He might not want to know about it but no way in the world he can ignore it now. No way in the world he can ignore her now.

"We will make it for always or if not, then for every day."
