He doesn't know how much he's breaking my heart right now. "Trinity, I don't know how to show you how much sorry I am." He states, rubbing his face with his hand in frustration. "You can't, your 'sorry' doesn't changed what happened." I point to my face, where the bandage is. "This could have been prevented but you didn't even move a muscle to come and save me." "Trinity, if I did that it could have ruined my plans." He says, lowly. "It doesn't matter. If you truly love me like you say you do, you wouldn't have hesitated to come save me. I was so scared Aaron, I thought I was going to die." I respond, tears spilling before I can stop them. "I do love you Trin, I love you so fucking much." He states, clutching his shirt where his heart is. "Not like the way I love you Aaron. If you were in the position I was in, I wouldn't have fucking hesitated to come save you. I would die for you and you clearly wouldn't do the same." - Trinity's planner didn't originally have "falling in love with Aaron Florence" on it, but after a heated night and multiple dates, it became a daily thing. That is until, she learns about what he does for work. She knew he worked with Reid Laurent, but she didn't know about what they did. Ambitious, Aaron Florence is willing to do anything to finish a work task, or mission, even if it puts his loved ones in danger. And it did. Now, terrified and pregnant, Trinity doesn't know what to do, how can she co-parent with the man who claimed to protect her at all costs but didn't? - scandalous © r3mismylove 2022 all rights reserved

This story sucks, don't read it! It's amazing how quickly your life can change. In a slow town like this, where nothing exciting ever happens, where nothing ever changes, one single moment can alter your life forever, for better, or for worse. Sometimes, we're lucky enough to be able to recognise these particular moments, and take a leap of faith, but, more times than not, they just happen without us even realizing what's going on until it's already too late. Tonight, a simple Saturday night, just like any other, would turn out to be one of the most defining moments of my life. Ace is living a slow life, knowing nothing other than drinking with his friends and the motorcycle club that raised him, waiting to reconnect with his father who has just been released from prison after a fifteen year sentence. Life is simple, though he thought. Until the night he meets Jenna, running from her haunting past and the man that she is desperately trying to escape. Ace is dead set on protecting Jenna, but, as she slowly learns to trust him enough to open up to, he finds himself landing in the middle of a human trafficking operation and a feud that goes way back, between the ringleader and his club. Suddenly, life doesn't seem so simple... Work in progress, especially the blurb! This story has content which may offend some readers. Mild coarse language! Physical and sexual violence! Lots of drug references! First draft! I don't own the cover image! I'm a disappointment to my family!

Watch them navigate this newfound relationship on fragile eggshells, until maybe they discover that this twist of fate was a blessing in disguise for both of them. ❣️❣️❣️ Excerpt: "I'm afraid" She muttered at the dead of the night. He brought her closer, rubbing his hand on her arm back and forth "I'm here. I won't let anything happen to you" He assured her and she looked up at him "Promise?" She murmured against his chest. "Promise" He gave her his word and then pulled the blankets on both of them, fighting the cold away. Moments passed until she closed her eyes. He looked at her with bubbly eyes, having missed her the entire week. Then a terrifying idea downed on him, he shouldn't get so attached to her. She wasn't his. She was his brother's girl from the beginning and he would only take her until Ace came back from wherever he was to claim her back. That's what he - she- wanted anyway, right? ❣️❣️❣️ *contains mature themes. *contains mature language. *is a 3rd person PoV. #13 in darkacademia #2 in bride #2 in abusive #10 in ForcedMarriage #6 in ForbiddenLove #5 in forced #1 in shortstory #11 in newadult #11 in youngadult #14 in love #1 in MatureLanguage #6 in SlowBurn #9 in ArrangedMarriage
