Tate

I thought I had finally found the man of my dreams, but I quickly realized he was in love with his best friend.

Now I’m being stalked by some guy in a red mask.

Is it wrong to hope the masked man who’s invading my personal space is my ex’s brother?

Someone I know who is dangerous and I should stay clear of. But something is pulling me to my masked stranger. I’ve never felt safer than when I’m in his arms.

I don’t even care what he does to me or where he does it.

He knows my heart’s desires and wants to make my dreams come true.

Nolan

I watched in the shadows as my brother strung Tate along. She thought the world of him, but he was just using her to hide his relationship with Chad.

I was the one holding her every night as she cried her heart out after each loss.

One way or another, I’m going to make her dreams come true.

She will be a mom.

Daddy’s going to make her dreams come true.

ways my BODY rejected my ex 🚫
when you’re with someone who’s not right for you, your body WILL let you know!! the body is highly intelligent, and has one goal - to keep you safe!! 🫶 it gives us warning signs that it’s distressed and not at ease, which can be a very helpful signal when we’re mentally in denial, or even just
