All those emotions I felt for him come crashes through me. The anger, the sadness, the betrayal. I’ve been putting everyone’s feelings before mine, but not anymore.
“I told you I will change for you. I’m trying the best I can. I’ll go to therapy. Just get a divorce and I’ll pretend it never happened.” He twirls a strand of my hair between his fingers. “I forgive you for this. You got your revenge. Come home, please.”
It’s the same lies he used to feed me, and I would have fallen for them then because I always had hope for us. I thought he was my fairy tale, but if the way he treated me was his way of love, I don’t want it. I want to fall in love with someone who actually doesn’t make me feel like shit.
Who doesn’t make me cry myself to sleep.
Who doesn’t lie to me every chance he gets.
Who doesn’t continue to rip my heart out and stomp on it.
I’m not looking for love right now, but if I were to ever fall in love I want him to be obsessed with me the way I am with him.
There is no point in telling Link how I feel because he doesn’t get it, and he never will because in his eyes he never does anything wrong.
“No. I have to go.”
He grabs my hand, and I snatch it away. “Please, don’t make this harder than it has to be.”
He pushes me against the brick wall and presses his mouth against mine, and I slam my teeth against his lips. Link groans, continuing to try and kiss me.
“Link, please stop. I do—”
He slides his hand up my skirt beneath my coat, sliding his fingers up my panties, pushing them to the side, and I lose it. I slap the shit out of him, but he barely moves.
“Come on, Poppy. Don’t you miss me?”
I look to the busy sidewalk for help, but no one pays us any mind. Not a damn paparazzi in sight. I push his hand away, but he moves my hands above my head.
“You’re going to give me wh—”
Michael spins Link around and forces his hand behind his back, shoving him to the brick wall. Jasper moves Michael out of the way and his fist connects with Link’s chest, then he tackles him to the ground. On top of him, pounding in his face..
I don’t stop him because I’m too stunned, attempting to process what is happening.
Chance turns up and yanks Jasper off of Link.
“You’re going to pay for what you did!” Link says to him. “She’s mine. Always will be.”
Before I know it, Jasper punches him in the chest again and pins him to the ground.
“You go anywhere near my wife, I’ll murder you,” Jasper shouts. He picks Link up by the shoulders and punches him in the gut. “You were touching what’s mine. She.” He punches him in his right eye. “Doesn’t.” In the balls. “Want you.” He punches him in the nose, then he spits on him. “You stay the fuck away from my wife.”
Link staggers back and looks between us, blood leaking down his face, then he takes off in a different direction before bumping into an old woman.
“He… He never acted that way before. Tried to force himself on me. To make me be with him.” I glance up at Jasper who wraps his arms around me, stroking my hair.
I burst into tears, soaking his dress shirt. He sooths me like I’m a wounded child. I’ve never been so scared in my life. “I’m so glad you showed up, otherwise…”
“Don’t dwell on it, Angel.”
He brushes his lips against mine before deepening our kiss. I never felt so safe with him until now.
“How did you find me?”
“Michael. He saw you walking with him and called me during the meeting. I had to leave ear—”
“I’m sorry.”
