She’s worth every rule I’ve ever broken.

Julie consumes me. Every breath I take is because of her. If I have to break every goddamn rule in order to keep her safe, then that’s what I’ll do—even if I’m the one who puts her in danger.

There are forces at work. People trying to tear us apart. But it’s time everyone realizes there’s no way in hell anyone will take Julie away from me. She’s my heartbeat, and living without her is simply not an option.

No matter the cost, I will protect her. I will protect us.

Julie is mine…and I plan to keep it that way.
