RUMOR
When one made rules, drew boundaries, protected themselves from
situations that could cause damage, it must be something they stood firm
on. That they demanded others respect. Showing weakness made those rules
and boundaries seem like suggestions instead of guidelines.
King Salazar made it very difficult to remember why I had set the rules.
He was the cause of them, yet every time he tried to push too far, I found
myself unable to stop drawing closer to the flame. Craving a man wasn’t
smart. Ever.
Especially a man who had lied to you and manipulated you. Yet that was
where I stood at the moment. Wanting what I shouldn’t have. Wishing it
were something it would never be.
I sat on the bed in the cottage that was located on the back of Maeme’s
property and listened to the silence around me. I’d been back in this house
and out of King’s bed for two weeks. Every night, King showed up with
dinner. Talked to me as if we were friends, and we often watched television.
Then, when I went to bed, he slept on the sofa. He refused to let me stay
here at night alone. He didn’t believe it was safe yet.
I didn’t know who or what to believe.
What I did know was that I was a widow and I wasn’t sad about it. My
husband had been hell-bent on eventually beating me to death. King had
made it possible for me to escape that life. It was one of the reasons I
struggled with my feelings for him. Part of me felt as if I owed him.
Another part held a slight worshipful reverence for him. It was messed up,
but it was my truth. If he and the others hadn’t come after Hill, the man I
had made the mistake of marrying, then I’d still be there, being beaten. Or
dead.
I also knew that I was willingly living under the protection of the
Southern Mafia family. The sweet grandmother who had brought me in,
given me a roof over my head, a sanctuary, was also part of the Mafia, just
like King, her grandson.
Lastly, I was aware that there was a gang who wanted me for information
on my dead husband. Which I did not have. Hill had never told me anything
about his life. I knew nothing of his work or illegal activities.
So, I was here. This was the only safe place for me. Living in a storybook
cottage with no bills. I’d stopped feeling guilty for being here. I no longer
thought I was taking advantage of a nice lady’s hospitality. They’d brought
me here. I lived in this house because of their manipulation and planning. It
shed a new light on the situation.
