Angel's Halo: Forever Angels (Angel's Halo MC Book 8)
Rewind.<br /><br />I hit the rewind button on the old VHS tape that contains my memories, causing the past to scream across my closed lids.<br /><br />Past the nightmare where Enzo Fontana goads me, threatening my family, wanting all the secrets of my MC that I refuse to give him.<br /><br />Past the evil laughter that reaches me even in the sweat-soaked, pain-filled oblivion of near-death sleep.<br /><br />Past the blast I thought would end me, the searing pain of the heat that melted my back, the shattering glass still lodged in parts of my body.<br /><br />Past the months of loneliness because I let the one person I knew I couldn’t live without walk out of my life because I knew I wasn’t good enough for her.<br /><br />Pause.<br /><br />There she is.<br /><br />Smiling up at me as I lean over her. Kissing her like I have the right to. Like I’m not stealing a moment in time I will have to live off of for the rest of my life.<br /><br />A life that is going to end very, very soon.<br /><br />I’m dying. I can feel the life begin to fade from me. My body, which has been tortured for days, perhaps even weeks—I don’t even know anymore—will give up soon.<br /><br />And all I want to do is think about her.<br /><br />That smile. The sweet taste of her lips. The little sounds she made as she gave me the most precious thing any woman could give a man. The love in her eyes in the afterglow.<br /><br />She was mine then.<br /><br />And I would forever be hers.<br /><br />“Jos,†I groaned, letting the first tear leak from my eyes.<br /><br />
