“I thought you were letting me go?” I adjusted my hand with Alex resting on my shoulder.
“Yes, ” he smiled.
I looked at him starting to get suspicious as I knitted my brows together. Part of me didn’t want to think, all that was a trick or show so he could laugh in my face before he took my children away from me.
MayaHere I was in the graveyard of my sister the day before my birthday. To think last week, we had talked for hours planning the details of how we were going to celebrate it. I hadn’t seen Macy in almost a month because she always told me her job was demanding and I never complained since she was the one who was paying the bills and my tuition.“Macy was beautiful,&rdquo
I would have slept through the whole day, but my cell phone, home phone, and the intercom were both ringing on top of my dog Molly barking too. I looked at my phone and it was almost 1 pm. “Shit!” I stumbled out of bed rubbing sleep off my eyes to see who was at the gate, ignoring Molly, my cell, and the landline. “Hello, who is it?” I said through the intercom.
Julian’s father was away most of the time and we have always had our make-out sessions at his house. We were in his living room after he had made me feel him and kissed me again, this time it was different and something happened, I let him lead me to his room. My brain wasn’t thinking at all because all I knew was, we never went to his room and I saw him smirking as he turned back kissing me again pulling me into his room. When we went in he slipped out of his shirt in one swoop as he reached to kiss me before helping me out of my dress.
The stories I was told about the first time being special were lies. Most people say the person will be gentle and the pain will be replaced by pleasure and that I will enjoy it as much as he would but the boyfriend, I thought was sweet deceived me and insulted my family.I was angry and sobbing as I ran home. The sky felt my pain and decided to join in on my misery as it started to rain soaking in no time. I guess the rain covered all my sobs and I didn’t realize that I had taken the wrong turn and had stopped at the wrong bus stop.
“What are you doing? Please let me go.” I started to cry again.“Maya, stop crying,” he reached out to wipe my tears, but I looked away“What are we going to do with her?” Ty asked, “You had Macy first it’s my turn,” he proceeded to give me a disgusting smile that made the back of my hair rise.
“What did Macy, tell you?” Ty had let go of me as started taking steps at Tom, who was now sitting clicking on the computer screen.Had I forgotten that he had choked just a few minutes ago or was Macy’s betrayal enough to make me feel anger rising in me that my feet started moving toward Tom? Ty held my shoulders playing bodyguard or protective brother to Tom as I was moving to him. I managed to elbow him making him release his hands off me as I slammed the table at Tom.
Tom had his hand on my neck again, squeezing tighter and tighter. Ty held his hand over Tom’s hand and he released me as I gasped for air.“Tom, let me, ” he gave him a look and a nod.“How could you let that idiot of all people?” He looked disappointed and angry, “Ty, when you are done with her, bring her to me, you have forty-eight hours.”
Ty“Please I thought you said you wouldn't do anything to me tonight,” she pleaded, her eyes looking down at my arm that was holding her before I let go.I smiled at her before I cup her cheeks “I kind of changed my mind,” she had flinched a little when I reached for her before she conceded with a panicked nod. Her eyes never left mine, which made me a little n

Maya“Does it always take this long for them to sleep?” I looked up to see Ryan rubbing the back of his neck as he spoke, and I simply nodded.The twins were finally asleep again after a long day. The flight had been long and so much time had flown by when we got to the hotel late in the afternoon. It has been a couple of hours and I was exhausted, but I knew Ryan an
RyanJust like that Maya walked back to their room and I was left to figure out how to get them to move. I turned to look at them and she had been right the sight in front of me was adorable. My children were sitting on the floor Alex’s hands stuck in Ava’s hair and they were sharing the other candy.I had no idea there was such happiness in seeing
The twins were settled on their highchairs eating comfortably. The highchairs were easy to assemble luckily, and Ryan had helped in silence. I watched him work around the steps and he looked like a natural because Dax and I had taken time to set them up once.“All done,” he smiled as he watched the twins eat admiring them for a second.“If you have somewhere else to be, we can always
MayaI was a mother now and nothing was going to get in the way of me protecting my children, including their father. I had decided to come back and face my husband and fight back no matter the cost and luckily Dax had taught me a lot after I gave birth.My pregnancy was hard. Tiffany and Dax helped me in most of the cases because I was a mess. Tiffany arranged a therapist for me on o
RyanI thought I was dreaming because she was here and not only was she here she brought my kids with her. My heart was doing somersaults and getting back to the way it was all this time. I paused as I said their name Alex and Ava Steel in my head. It had a nice ring to it, and I was already designing their rooms in my head and they were going to be spoiled rotten.I pulled out
I felt as if I was flying with a smile on my face this time and I was at peace as if this was my ride to heaven, I was a happy passenger. “Mommy, mommy,” I heard a voice, but I refused to open my eyes.SMACK. My eyes flew open attentively this time startled by the wailing noise.“Hey, young lady, we don’t talk with fists. Now say sorry to your brother,” I looked at my dau
MayaIf someone had told me that Tiffany and I would form an alliance I would have laughed and thought it was absurd, but my life had been filled with a lot of crazy shit and pain so believe me when I finally agreed to let her help with the escape it was the best fucking allegiance that brought good memories ahead.“Have you completely lost your mind?” Dax asked as h
“Woah, easy,” I raised my hands, “You might want to put the gun down Maya,” I looked at her.“I said talk, ” she moved closer, and by the way she looked, she meant business.“Okay, my guys are outside so careful with your next move,” I took a step back, but my words made it worse because the gun was corked close to my chest and she was not shaking or hes
