The words sat heavy in the air, spinning themselves into intricate webs. Webs designed to trap me. Designed to tangle me up irreversibly with even the smallest of my imperfections. I've never been perfect, and I know now that the lack of perfection I hold will be the one thing to get me tangled beyond the possibilities of return. The webs of endless words are stuck so tightly together that I can barely make out my argument hidden within. So tightly that I can barely see anything but the endless valleys of arguments designed to stop me from turning anywhere but back. And then the webs part to reveal a path into the mist. Another option, at last. I place my hand in hers. I can finally breathe again.

While tortured and held captive as a prisoner of war, she became my reason to keep breathing. The force that fueled my will to fight. To survive. When I woke after the rescue to discover the life I thought I was coming home to was but a figment of my imagination, hallucinations brought about by pain, desperation, and isolation... it nearly broke me. Fifteen years since I first lost her, at last, we have a second chance. Holding her in my arms, finally feeling the warmth of her skin as she melts under my touch, is like a dream. She and her two little girls are now as essential to my existence as the air I breathe. However, just as things start falling into place, the universe steps in, threatening to take it all away. I used to think that choosing her cost me everything I'd ever loved, but now I see that in choosing her and her children, I have the chance to reclaim all that I lost. They are my salvation. My true path to redemption. Which is why I'll leave no stone unturned, why I will scorch this world to the ground if that's what it takes to save them. And when I do, I will fight to convince her once and for all they are meant to be mine, just as I was destined to be theirs. In the Broken Redemption Series, one man's vow to protect the woman he lost becomes a battle between redemption, forgiveness, and the kind of love that refuses to let go. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is Book 3 of Lucas & Emilia's Broken Redemption arc, the emotional conclusion to their story. For the full journey, start with Book 1: Broken Vows.
