Murder & Mayhem

First, it was to protect my foster brothers.
Later, it was to rid the world of the scum that managed to avoid justice.

The rest of my world was a mundane grey scale of nothingness as I tried to blend in. I only felt alive with the feel of my victim’s pulse slowing under my hand.
Then I met Jamie.
Everything about him called to me.
The terror and determination behind his sage green eyes. The snarky attitude that he used to hide the brokenness inside him.

Everything about him called to me.
The terror and determination behind his sage green eyes. The snarky attitude that he used to hide the brokenness inside him.
He wasn’t meant for the darkness of this world. But he wouldn’t back down, fighting through his fear, fighting for his brother with everything he had.
I knew I should walk away. Entangling myself with Jamie would only bring attention to me and my brothers, which we didn’t need.
It was too late for that. The consequences meant nothing to me if it meant keeping Jamie by my side and safe.
