The Beginning by AstridMMarrow

Finding himself wrapped in the one person from past, a woman who'd always made his heart skip, Nicky would find himself asking if Colburn was all that bad. In her thirty years of life, Tess Bowen never needed another person to survive. Working three jobs, maintaining her apartment with her irresponsible roommate, Lexi, and finishing her degree, Tess didn't have time for life. Deciding to take a break, from her reality, Tess finds herself hungover and naked beside a stranger. Little did she know, this stranger had more in common with her than she thought. When their relationship, or lack thereof, draws the attention of his family and all those in Colburn, Tess begins to receive strange phone calls.

"Why can't I fucking hit you?" Thomas yells, smacking the belt close to her feet. "Why," he smacks it on the door above her head. "Why, fucking why" to the right and left sides of her body. Melina trembles against the door with her eyes closed and head tucked between her knees. She jumps, sniffing Thomas' cologne, and tries to hide more. He's probably bending down. "I want to hurt you, Melina, but I fucking can't. Tell me why I fucking can't. Tell me why," she bites her lips to muffle her sobs as she fears they will exacerbate her situation. "Fucking look at me when I am talking to you," Thomas says, grabbing her hair and pulling her head up. "I am- so-r-r-r-y," she says as she turns to face him with her tear-stained face and bloodshot eyes. "Did you think it would work? Did you actually think you could get me arrested and then flee? Are you that dumb, Melina?" he tightens his grip on her hair, and it starts to hurt. Melina can't believe this is what he thinks.
