He hurt me
He broke me
He almost destroyed me

falling apart around me. Secrets shattering my faith in those closest to me and
with the nightmare from my past pushing its way back into my present, I don't
know how much strength I have left to fight with....
Could I trust him? Give someone the power
to hurt me again? He's determined to break me free from behind my walls of
self-preservation.
I'm just not sure I'm ready or willing to
be Freed by Him....

"I'm capable of taking care
of myself, you know!"
He smirked at me looking amused.
"Sweetheart, I've seen you in action so that's not up for debate, but no
fucker is gonna put his hands on you like that when I'm around."
I lifted my chin at him in
defiance. "What's it gotta do with you?" I sounded like a petulant
teenager, but he just grinned at me, his arrogance riling me up further.
"We'll see"
He pushed me back toward the table
before addressing Christian and Maddie, "I'm gonna take her home." He
indicated at me with a jerk of his head and I exploded, my temper finally
getting its release after the arsehole on the dancefloor.
"Excuse me! I'm right here!
I'll go home when I damn well please, not when you say, who the bloody hell do
you think you are!" He grinned at me and rolled his eyes, infuriating me
almost to the point of combustion.
Maddie pulled herself upright into
a sitting position, trying to extricate herself from Christian’s grasp. "We're
going now too. C'mon Lee I'll come as well" Maddie tried to pacify me but
Nate shook his head.
"You guys stay, or go
together. Whatever," He shrugged. "I'm taking Lena"
Maddie’s eyes flicked to me uncertainly
as I looked at him stunned, trying to think of a response more eloquent than “Fuck off!”
Maddie started to speak, but
Christian whispered in her ear just as Nate cut her off. "It's not a request.
I'll have her text you"
His playfulness from earlier had
been replaced by a cool confident authority. I gaped at him as he spoke to her.
As he turned back to me I met him with a face like thunder, which caused a huge
grin to break across his face again.
I glanced back at Maddie for help,
expecting her to be outraged at Nate's behaviour but she was smirking at me,
looking somewhat impressed with him. Trust her to be taken in with the caveman
behaviour.
I felt like stamping my foot and
shouting. This is not how I was used to being treated. This was not how I
allowed myself to be treated. I was a grown woman of nearly 25; I did what I
wanted when I wanted. I was practically running a company for God’s sake.
As if sensing my newfound resolve
Nate cocked an eyebrow at me a small smile playing on his lips as he leaned in
"Don't make me throw you over my shoulders Princess. There are a number of
ways you can make your exit but you should know every one of them involves
me" He winked at me looking relaxed, an arrogant smirk on his face. I scowled
back but allowed him to lead me from the bar.
The cold night air hit me and I
realised how unsteady on my feet I felt.
He was beside me in an instant.
"If I'd have known I'd be taking you home I'd have brought a jacket"
He said with a smile as he gently rubbed my arms before wrapping his own around
me in a warm embrace.
I stood tucked inside his arms, my
back pressed close to his chest while we waited for a taxi. "If I'd known
you'd be taking me home I'd have stayed in," I quipped back and he laughed,
a deep rumbling sound that had me grinning in spite of myself.
I’m a SAHM with 2 little ones. I live in Wales in the UK. I don’t drink any hot drinks despite trying my best to make myself like coffee! I love reading – obviously, writing and music, and hot sunny days which we never get enough of!
I’ve dreamed of writing my whole life and would often pen short stories as a child. Unfortunately life took over and reading and writing were forced to take a back seat for the last few years. Until my husband bought me a kindle last Christmas….and well, suddenly everything changed! Haha
My debut book Freed by Him releases on November 19th and is the first in a two part series, titled Fighting Free. The second book, Caught by Her will be coming soon.
