Waiting for Him

Trent
I was doing just fine with my life. I had it all. A nice home, a good job, my family and friends. In a small town like Peachtree, that's all you need right? That's what I thought too, and then I met her. She ran right into my life and turned it upside down. She's gorgeous and made just for me. So what's the problem? Well, an abusive fiancé is kind of a mood killer. When she needs my help in getting away from the one hurting her, I don't hesitate. I know I need to protect her, but how can I convince her that I can? How can I make her believe that I want to be with her? When our life together is threatened, I'll do everything I can to make sure she's safe. Even if it's with my last breath.

My life was not my own. I was living every day thinking about how I could leave, how I could get away from his grasp. Fate had her own plans though. She landed me into this small town for a reason. I just didn't know what that reason was until I met him. Running into a fairy tale life seemed like the perfect remedy after all the crap I've been through. But how can it be real? Can I really let go of my past and move forward with my knight in shining armor? When my choices are taken away from me, my worries don't seem so important. He found me once, but how do I know he can find me again?
