She had a sharp sense of humor and an even sharper tongue, with a heart of stone.
The exact opposite of my type.
Besides, I wasn't there for romance. I wanted adventure, a summer of fun before starting my new job after graduation. A woman like her was nothing but a complication in my perfect getaway.
And yet, I was drawn to the distraction wrapped in barbed wire in an inexplicable way.
When she was near, so was I, and if any other guy tried to move in, I wanted them gone.
She got to me in ways no one ever had.
But her world is full of darkness and secret And when her mask slips and I catch a glimpse of the real her, I know I’ll never get enough.
If only I had known better, I would have held on to her tighter.
