Renee was taken off guard by Jesse apologizing. He had never apologized to her before when he did something like this. She didn’t relax. It made her angry. Did he think that apologizing to her was going to fix this? Her hatred for him came back full force. She had to get away from him. She had to find a way to talk him into letting her have a job so that she could save her money and run away. She would call the number Kevin had and try to tell him what was going to happen. She couldn’t live like this anymore.

Renee felt like she was dying. He was taking the little bit of freedom he had given her away. She had worked hard to gain that freedom, and now, because of someone else, she was losing it. She became angry. She always knew this ploy of his was just to toy with her so he could hurt her worse once she had started to relax. She shoved his chest and screamed, “I hate you!” “You’ll get over it,” Jesse said as he walked away. Renee slid down to the floor and pulled her knees up to her chest. She placed her head on them and cried. There wasno way she could go back to him brutalizing h

Weeks went by with Jesse keeping a closer eye on Renee. She didn’t try to harm herself, but she was closed off. He had stopped taking her to the mommy and me group each week. She rarely smiled anymore. He had been checking her phone and the usage to see who she had been messaging. So far, she hadn’t deleted any of them off the phone. There were messages from the other women in the group asking her where she was and was everything okay. She never answered them.When he touched her, she tensed up or shrunk away from him. She didn’t fight him, but she was no longer responsive in any way. She would cry at night when she thought he was asleep. Even Christian couldn’t get her to smile most of the time. He sighed as he sat on the couch, watching her play with Christian on the floor. She had a slight smile on her face, but you could tell it was only there for the sake of

Months went by and Jesse had still not been able to bring Renee around. She hadn’t been sleeping well. She would have bad dreams at night and lash out. Sometimes she hit him, but he didn’t do anything out of the way because of it. Instead, he would wrap her in his arms and hold her tight, trying to stop her from fighting in her sleep. She would wake up terrified and her body would shake for a long time before she would finally fall back asleep. Her eyes had dark circles under them and she was barely eating. He would have to force her to eat at dinner or she would just wind up pushing the food around on her plate. Summertime had hit and the flowerbeds that she had tended to the past two years were starting to bloom. She hadn’t even been outside to tend to them even once. He had tried to get her to come out with him and offered to help her with them, but she had told him no every time.

Once she finished changing Christian, she came back out to the living room. Jesse was sitting on the couch, leaned over with his elbows on his knees. He looked deep in thought so she left him alone. She could feel him staring at her and Christian and she couldn’t help but wonder what he was going to do next. When he suddenly stood up, she tensed, waiting for him to do something to her. Instead, he took Christian out of her lap. He stood her up and kissed her while holding Christian on his hip. Christian put his hands on their faces and Renee smiled at him as Jesse broke the kiss. Jesse was really happy to see that smile on Renee’s face. He hadn’t seen it in a long time, not even when she looked at Christian. She hadn’t tensed up when he had kissed her and it made him feel good. He was going to go ahead with his surprise for her. He wasn’t sure if she would like it or not after everyth

Renee had thought about Jesse’s comment all the way back to the house. She knew their fake ID’s had them listed as a married couple, but they weren’t actually married. Why would she need a wedding ring after all this time? She had to admit to herself that she would have liked to have gotten married one day, but now, she knew she wouldn’t. She had hoped that one day Kevin would propose, but he hadn’t. She had seriously thought he was going to do it on their anniversary, but Jesse had ruined that. She sighed as she started putting away all of the things that had been bought today.Jesse hadn’t given her the necklace she had seen him get. What had he bought it for? Jesse came into the room and saw her putting all of the things away. He had told her that he had a surprise for her so why wasn’t she getting ready? He stopped her as she went to put the dress

Renee noticed he wasn’t looking at the restaurant but directly at her when he said it. She found herself blushing. What was happening to her today? She had felt bad for Jesse earlier and then had felt a twinge of something when he said he had been talking to a woman. And now, she was blushing because of a compliment. She was losing her mind. When the waiter came over, Jesse ordered a bottle of wine. Renee was no longer breastfeeding so she was able to drink wine without worrying about it.“Do you see anything on the menu that you would like?”“Um, it’s all really expensive. I think I’m just going to get a salad.”“Nonsense. I brought you here knowing what the cost would be. I’m not worried about what the total is. Order w

Jesse sat back and smiled. She had a wild streak. He had never seen that from her before. Of course, he hadn’t reallyseen any of her different sides as she had never let loose aroundhim. He found her more intriguing now and wanted to get toknow all of her. He liked the little smile she had on her face as she thought about all the times she went mudding.“So, you are a country girl?”“Oh yeah. I loved to camp and go four-wheeling. I love a good bonfire. Good old fashioned country nights are always the best. You go four-wheeling, build a bonfire, camp out at night and wake up the next morning to fresh country air. It’s even better to wake up next to someone in that te

Renee felt a shiver run through her body as his handtraced down her bare back and around her waist. He showedher how to point the stick and he drew it back and thrust it forward so she could feel how hard to strike the cue ball. He continued to do this as he showed her different shots throughout the game. He would not only show her how to shoot, but he also took advantage to touch her in a way that was sexual. Renee found that being shown how to play was a very intimate thing.After the game was over, Jesse left her with the table to go get them another drink. She started racking the balls when a guy came up to the table. She ignored him when he smiled at her. She looked towards the bar and found Jesse was still there. She was surprised to find she hoped he came back soon as the guy was moving clos

5 years later A raven-haired beauty with hazel eyes runs up. He smiled as he wrapped her up in his arms. He spun in circles with her in his arms as she giggled. He sat her down onto her feet and looked around at the people in the home. It had been hard the year and a half it had taken for his trial. In the end, it was worth it. It had been hard not being able to be with Renee when he’d been in the same state. She hadn’t come to see him even though he had tried to apologize to her. She never took his calls. His mother had seen her and Christian. She was going to petition for rights to see Christian and she had told Renee that. Renee had politely told her there was no need. All she had to do was tell her first and if they didn’t have anything planned, she was more than welcome to get him. She’d taken pictures of Christian and sent them to Kevin. Some of

“Why would you do that for someone who mistreated you?” “Jesse could be an asshole but he treated me prettygood over time. I loved him and I think he deserves to be withthe only family he ever had. After this is all over, I plan to returnhome, too, so I can raise our child and my son. My child will never know their father other than a grave.” George shook his head. This woman was either crazy or she really did have Stockholm syndrome. He knew she’d been in a car accident at the beginning of the year and suffered a brain injury. Had that affected her judgment that much? He needed to know what happened so he needed to get the body released. They had only held it until the fingerprints came back anyw

“Sarge, you’re going to want to see this,” Nolan said. “What is it, Nolan?” “The fingerprints are back. We had them rushed because of the missing person’s case.” George had found files in Kevin’s car that contained emails between him and a woman named Marie. It also contained a crime report involving him and a woman named Renee Kennedy. The picture showed the same woman that was at the crime scene. He’d taken her fingerprints and that of the victim, Mark Morgan. They had detained Kevin since he was inside the Morgan’s home. It had been a month and neither Kevin nor Tabitha had talked about what had happened in that house. He’d notified Kevin’s mother of what had happened as she was listed as his emergency contact. She’d notified him that he should contact Renee Kennedy

Kevin went to kick the knife out of Jesse’s hand when Jesse opened his eyes and stabbed him in the leg. Kevin cried out at the pain burning up the muscle of his leg. He hit his knees and his hand went to the knife. He pulled it out right as Jesse grabbed his collar and began punching him in the face and the side of his head. Renee didn’t know how to stop the fight. She did the only thing she could think of. She dug her phone out and called 911. “911, what’s your emergency?” “They’re going to kill each other!” Renee cried. “Ma’am, calm down. What’s your name?” Renee ignored her. She rattled off her address as she saw Jesse grab the wrist of the hand that Kevin had the knife in. He twisted the wrist unti

Renee was feeling uneasy after her meeting with Kevin. He was definitely planning something and it scared her. She didn’t want him to get hurt but she also didn’t want Jesse to know he had found them. She was definitely wondering if he already knew. She bit her lip as her thoughts turned to the darker side of how things could go down. “Mommy!” Christian yelled. “I’m sorry, Christian. I was in my thoughts. Did you say something to me?” Renee asked as she drug herself out of the bad thoughts she was having about Jesse and Kevin. “I want to go back. I want Mr. Kevin.” “I’m sorry, Christian, but that just isn’t possible. Your daddy doesn’t know that you aren’t his son. Please, promise me, baby, that you won’t te

“Deal,” Jesse said as he kissed and hugged her. Renee sighed and walked away to find Christian. She’d take him to dinner and a movie tonight. He had been begging to go see Tom and Jerry. Since this was their night, she’d take him out for a happy meal and ice cream too. She wondered if he’d like putt-putt golf. She hadn’t played it since she was little but it might be something he’d enjoy. They could get breakfast, play a couple of games, and then go to the park for an hour or so. With her plans set in her mind, she went to find Christian. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Kevin pulled out his pocket knife and sharpened it. He’dthought about this day long and hard. If he bought a gun, it would be premeditated murder. He sharpened the blade while he t

“What do you mean, ‘thank God you’re awake’? How long have I been asleep?” “Two days. It’s Tuesday. My boss wasn’t thrilled that I missed two days but I explained what happened.” “Where’s Christian?” Renee asked. “I took him to Nancy’s after we realized you weren’t waking up when the nurse came to check on you. You’ve been moaning and thrashing in your sleep every so often.” “Oh. Was I talking in my sleep at all?” “Not while I was awake. Why? Do you remember anything?” “I remember everything,” Renee whispered. “Before or afte

“Will you, um, will you come let the guard rail down? I need to go to the bathroom,” Renee said as her cheeks reddened. “Sure. No need to be embarrassed, baby.” “That wasn’t really what I wanted but I do need to go.” Jesse put the bed rail down and helped Renee up. She leaned on him to catch her bearings. She went to the bathroom and came out. He could tell by the look on her face that she was still confused about what was happening. She regained some of her memories if not all of them, but had she forgotten the ones after the accident? “Do you want to tell me what you really wanted now?” Renee’s cheeks turned red again but she held her arms out.

Jesse sat out in the waiting room with Christian as they waited for the doctors to run tests. Christian had finally settled down and stopped crying. He was sitting in Jesse's lap sucking his thumb. He had started that back up after Renee had been in the accident. Now every time he was extremely stressed, that thumb was back in his mouth. It agitated Jesse somewhat but he let it go because he knew he was trying to comfort himself against what was happening with his mom. It had been hours since Renee had been brought in and no one had updated him yet. Jesse stroked Christian’s hair absentmindedly until he saw the doctor come out. Dr. Getty walked up to him and held out his hand. Jesse took it and shook it. The doctor had a neutral look on his face. “Mr. Morgan, we meet again. I wish it was under better circumstances,” Dr. Get
