She smiled, intertwining our fingers. “As much as I love you, my sexy Reaper.”

Mimi still wasn’t awake. Days had lapsed and my sweet sunshine was silent as the grave.

I’d paced her hospital room for hours today, waiting and hoping for her eyes to open. The doctors said there was a chance they may never open, but I wasn’t giving up. I needed her and she needed me. We found one another for a reason, and I intended to prove it once she was well enough.

I’d have to take things slow. That wasn’t a surprise considering she was a victim of human trafficking. She’d been abused so much her mind was fragile. She didn’t think she deserved love or kindness, compassion or understanding but she was wrong.

With a roar, I stood fast, yelling for the nurses, doctors, and everyone in the damn vicinity to come running. This wasn’t okay. It wasn’t the end.

No, not my sunshine.

Anything but this.
