Where We Promise

<p>n a tangled mess of betrayal and chaos I was moved almost overnight onto rival territory under the protection of the one man I never wanted to be a burden to.</p><p><em>Jameson King.</em></p><p>To keep me safe he handed me a ring and told me I'd become his wife. It's a marriage made of convenience but there's a thread of truth neither of us want to examine. The past we're ignoring the almost we could have had if our lives were different.</p><p><em>If I hadn't chosen wrong.</em></p><p><br></p><p>I keep trying to convince myself it doesn't matter not when we hold hands or sleep in the same bed. Because Jameson has always held me at arm's length and my ex is coming for me...we're just biding our time before this all comes to a messy end.</p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>This is where we promise to hold honor and cherish...but what are vows made from lies?</span></p><p>Jameson will stay long enough to ensure I'm safe and then he'll let me go just like he always did before.</p>
