Broken Love

"I'd wanted the fairy tale, and somewhere along the line I'd forgotten that everyone in a fairy tale paid a price."Jesse: Four months after Jessica walked away from me, I returned to find that she'd removed herself from my life as much as possible-even from her art studio and storefront on the first floor of the SAFE Security building. She couldn't run far since she was carrying my child, and one night of playing nice landed me in her bed. While it didn't repair the broken love between us, it renewed my determination to win her back.Jessica: Ending up in the back of Jesse's truck while he was on vacation wasn't what I'd intended, but it gave us time to talk in a way we hadn't before. Now that he understood I wasn't a submissive, maybe we had a chance to be friends and co-parents? I just wish I could stop yearning for his touch.
