Jagged Line Paradise

I left our hometown—a place she once called paradise—when we were just a couple of dirt poor teenagers. I left to flee the aftermath of a horrifying event that completely broke us. And now, ten years later, I'm going back to face the wreckage that I thought I'd put behind me—my father's gruesome legacy, the trauma of our past, and the girl who survived it all without me by her side.

 

She hates me now for leaving her behind and I don't blame her.

I don't blame her, but I want her.

I want her, even though I know I should stay away from her.

 

I could be dangerous.

I am my father's son, after all.
