Reina knew one thing: she would do anything, endure any hardship, face any obstacle to protect her new family. They were her reason, her purpose, her everything. She would be their fortress, their shield, their unwavering love in the face of a world that wanted to tear them apart. For Reina, her new family was more than just blood and bone. They were the reason she breathed, the heartbeat of her soul. And she would protect them, no matter the cost.
This is mostly an autobiography. So if it seems drawn out I apologize it is just what I have been through. As I slowly lose my memories this gives me the freedom to reflect on where I've been and what I've gone through.

His Ruthless Temptation
I saw her long before she saw me. She didn't know then that her fate had already been sealed, that every step she took was drawing her closer to me. Closer to what she would become. There was something in her-something fragile, something wild. A fear she tried to hide, wrapped in defiance and confidence. It was intoxicating, watching her, knowing that no one else could see what I saw. No one else could feel the pull like I did. The slow, deliberate unraveling of her world as it would soon be tethered to mine. I felt my heart beat once, hard and fast. It was the only signal I needed. She would be mine-not in some fleeting, hollow way. No. I would strip away every shield, every defense, until she was laid bare, body and soul. And when she looked at me for the first time, I knew. She was already mine. A. Trigger Warning ⚠️: This story contains intense and graphic content, exploring dark and disturbing themes that may be triggering for some readers.
