"What did they do to you?"

"At first I got a letter doubling my offer of the hundred and seven million dollars. I didn't respond and then I started getting threatening letters. All of us did. I woke up one morning and went to check on Kevin. He was still asleep on his bed. On the pillow beside him was a plastic container with a live scorpion in it. I wanted to stop, trust me! I'm not Superman! I'm like everybody else out there! I just want to live and enjoy my life, but I want my son to enjoy his life to! Because of what happened to him I'm not even sure that he knows what enjoyment is. It's not right! He and so many others deserve the life they were created to have and enjoy. I knew it was possible that they might kill one or both of us, but I just thought it was the right thing to do. For a while I wondered if you were involved, but I decided against that. Then you told me that you killed people. Please don't hate me when I tell you this Tyre! It's true that I had feelings for you! That I wanted to be yours and I want you to be Kevin's daddy but…."

She stammered to complete what she was trying to say so I finished it for her, "But you were hoping that you and Kevin would be safe with me, because I would be able to protect you."

"Yes." She said whispering.

I pulled her face back up with a finger.

"Why on Earth would you think I would have a problem with keeping you and Kevin safe?"

"I don't want you to feel like I'm using you! I was at first I suppose, but not now! I promise!"

My thumb coasted over her lips caressingly, "I consider protecting you and Kevin among the highest priorities I could ever accomplish in life. I don't feel used, but rather fulfilled in some way as a man. I would do far more than just protect you Anna. I would gladly die for you!"

Her hand closed over mine tightly, "Oh please don't do that!"

I smiled and change the subject, "How about you getting up here. You're too far away down there."

She slid onto my lap and I kissed her with real passion.
