I never expected him to come back. I thought that he had forgotten me. My life has been going down the train tracks ever since I tried moving on, and at my time of need... he's like a miracle. Maybe my heart held on to the memories of him. Maybe my heart told me to wait. Warren was nothing compared to him. Only then did I realize that I had been so blind all my life. It wasn't Warren that I loved. It never was. My mind told me that, to create the illusion of me being capable to move on that easily. My mind isn't always right. If you ever come across a decision of picking between a caring childhood friend that moved away, and a friend who once lit up your world... pick your childhood friend. They understand you much better than anyone else. They know your limits. They know when to take care of you. They know when you need space. Most importantly, they know when you need to feel loved. [A/N: Might be triggering, no profanity, but it is slightly dark]

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.
