The Haunting Of A Man Scorned
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56…Jenna POV…
I find myself staring at a ghost, yet that is what it seems to be. So as I close my eyes and squeeze them real tight, slowly I flutter them open again…
“Luke?”
Then from deep within in this man’s chest comes a rumble, “Why is she the only one who seems to know who I really am?”
With that, Tyler steps in front of me, shielding me from a man that is supposed to be dead. Though my question is, “How? How can you be alive?”
He only but smirks at me, “Oh, my dear Jenna, my brother grew obsessed, and he was the one that holds you captive in that barn.”
From underneath Tyler’s breath, there is anger that only starts growing, “Bullshit, Luke. You were fucking behind it from the start.”
“Tyler,” Luke only snaps at him, “Why would I hurt the woman that I love?”
And yes, that Luke should not have said, for next T

I have not seen her so terrified of anything since that day she left Luke on the steps of the Sheriff’s Office. Now she has this terrifying expression on her face.It immediately makes my heart drop, the room grows suffocating and I feel that I cannot breath or move, least of all say a single word.So after taking a few rather deep breath, I look back into those eyes, "Jenna, what is wrong?""Tyler there's something I need to tell you.""What has happened? What is wrong?"“Tyler, I am further alone than I told you.”I only but shake my head at head, confused, not making sense of her words, “What are you talking about?”“The babies, they are,” she starts to hesitate and I feel that I am near to damn dying, but as she continues, I wish that she never spoke, “I am a w

…Tyler POV…I would hope that Jenna and my life has gone back to normal again. But with this fake smile on my lips, I have not yet been able to let go of the fact that if the babies in her belly are mine. I have not been able to build up that courage that I need to ask her; I keep on stuttering like a fool, then I end up leaving it.So today, we are going to the Doctor, and he's going to put that ungodly probe against her body and twirl it around to show us what is going to probably be the size of a tiny little person depending on how far along pregnant she really is. Now, this is terrifying the shit out of me because I know the further along she is, the more possible it is not my child, but in fact, it is Luke's.Now I still have not raised this concern with her even though she can see in my eyes that I am fearing the worst she knows that I want to ask it, but she knows that I will not ask it for she is scared to confirm it to me, she is scared th
Chasing Broken Destinies Fear And Regret
…Tyler POV…Watching Jenna, there is a crippling fear that is settling over every bone in my body. Yes, I want to know, in fact, I have the right to know.So, I have put tension between us again on what is supposed to be a happy day, but happiness is not what is filling me...There is only one thing that is consuming me now…and that is…FEAR.Why? Why must such an emotion come to bring you down in moments when you should feel happy.Well, guess what?I have known fear for a very long time. My whole life, to be precise. We've been together through everything, the good times and, yup, definitely the bad. Looking back, I wonder why it was there when I've been happy, why it questioned my happiness, but I guess it just didn't want to feel left out of the party. It just wanted to keep reminding me that it was there, like a security blanket, promising to never leave my side.So as I have to sit and endure t
Chasing Broken Destinies Bliss In The Morning Sun
…Jenna POV…It is early morning and the rays of the sun are lying hot on Tyler's body.Walking out of the Doctor's rooms was the hardest thing that I had to do yesterday. Tyler did not come in when the Doctor did the examination, so he does not yet know the results. I know that it is killing him and that he wants to know but there is a part of him that wishes he did not.How do I even start this conversation? All I know is I know what it is that I am destined to do. So as he starts to stir from his rest, I take his face between my hands, "Hey.""Have you been staring at me while I was resting my eyes?""Perhaps…"Taking Tyler's hand, I slide it up my thigh, slipping his fingers under the seams of my shirt…He only but smiles, "Now this is a way that I wish to be disturbed."His hand grips tight onto my waist. My hand is moving up his leg, my fingers gently grazing his hard length. His body is trembli

...Tyler POV...As I lay here next to Jenna, things have gone oddly quiet. It is one of those uncomfortable silences that we have grown so used to. I do not think I can face the fact that these are not my babies. In fact, I do not even want to know. All I know is this is going to break us again. I don't know how many more times do we need to go down this road, so as I am getting ready to get dressed and get the fuck out of here, I think of the one thing that I would want to say to her now.Well, I guess it would go something like this..."Dear JennaFrom the first moment we met, I knew there was something different about you. Maybe you were the first person to treat me kindly. But, no. It was more than that. There was an aura about you that I could never quite get around. A wave of self-sufficiency, a wall of independence that no one would ever break down. It haunts me to this day. I could never compete with that, I'm a big enough person to admit it. I re

And there is no other place I would rather be.Thinking of her brings me warmth, it fills me up and threatens to consume me in every possible way. I would simply die if I could not be with her."Can I kiss you?""You are so polite in asking.""I cannot go…"I place my fingers against his soft lips and wrap his face in my hands. I pull his face closer until there is nothing but a mere breath between our lips. Then I softly whisper. "I thought you would never ask."

Chasing Broken Destinies Faith Is About Believing
Faith is about believing. You don't know how it will happen, but it will happen.Sebastian is sitting next to me, holding my hand so tight that it is becoming numb. He has dozed off and looks so peaceful as he is sleeping. I do not want to wake him up; he has not had a decent night's rest in what seems to be ages. He stays up every night, every day; he is awake almost every waking moment looking after me. He needs these few moments.I am writing this letter as a token of my love to him, as a keepsake for him to treasure, and as a reminder of my commitment to us and to our life together."To my dear love,I want you to know that I love you, ALL OF YOU, and I always will. I am committed to our marriage until death does us part. At times, in moments of deep frustration, I may have questioned otherwise, but that was my immature way of seeking love from you when I should have been looking for you to fill the void in my temporarily wandering heart.Belov
Chasing Broken Destinies Strength Grows In Moments
...Jenna POV....Strength grows in the moments that you think you cannot go on, but keep going on anyway.That is so much easier said than done.This morning I do not have the strength to do anything at all. Even the dreaded steps that I need to the bathroom every time my body decides to give in is even too much for me.Much to Tyler's horror, I started getting really sick throughout the night. Now, this morning I wish I can say it is because I have morning sickness, but somehow I do not think it could ever be so bad.What is bad is Tyler insisting on holding my hand every time I do. I so wish that he did not have to go through this; in fact, I do wish that I did not have to go through this. But I guess that this is the hand that we have been dealt, and even though it is incredibly unfair, I need to find that strength that Tyler wants me to.But I can't.The sad thing is, I am going to die.So as Tyler takes me back for what se
Chasing Broken Destinies Note Before I Die
…Tyler POV…So it has begun.We have been married for four months now, and it feels like just four months ago that we overcame this battle. In fact, through all the craziness of the past four months, it only but feels like we have come full circle. We are right back to where we have started.Well, almost.Jenna has Cancer.There is a lot of speculation and so many unanswered questions.This time, I am not worried about myself; this time, I am worried about the babies, and most of all, I am concerned about Jenna. I do not even know, and I have not even dared to ask what the chances are for Jenna to carry a full-term pregnancy. I guess being left in the unknown sometimes is far easier than having to know all the answers. For once, I can honestly say that I do not wish to know any of them at all.The only question?Where do I find not one but two miracles?Well, I am searching, but by judging the fact at the r
Chasing Broken Destinies The Quiet Before The Storm

Jenna has only just survived, should I even dare to say, an experience that could have gone different in so many ways with Brendan and then me with my very own near-death scare, now we are heading to the very same destination again. This is not something that one comes back from unscathed. I need Jenna to know that we are okay. This may not be tonight, tomorrow, or the next day, but everything is going to be okay.Now let me tell you a story of a man so lost and incomplete that he dwelled for years in trying to find that one thing that he eluded him so, love. The man that tells you that they do not desire to experience love and not be love in return is not only a liar and a fool. The craving to be loved is a desire that every man wants. I have that love for Jenna, and I know that she has that love for me. We can overcome all of this; we need to be strong.I, myself, am a strong person, but eve
Chasing Broken Destinies Four Lives Into The Unknown
...Jenna POV...We are getting the results of the tests back today.As I am sitting and waiting for Tyler in the bedroom, I can hear as he and the Doctor are having a full-blown argument over the phone. I saw that crushed look on his face when we left the Doctor's room the other day. He is feeling defeated once more again as we have entered the unknown. So he is at heads with the Doctor because they have not received the results. He is hurting once more again, and do I even dare to say it is my fault.So as I see him step through the door, it crushes my heart to pieces. His shoulders are slump, with his head hanging down to the floor. I can see his hands are trembling, and his knuckles are red; he must have hit the wall. The Tyler I know would not have done it; this is a broken man. I don't know where his pieces are to put him back together again. But as his eyes meet my concerned face, he forms the weakest of smiles around his lips. At least he is trying, but I
