Promise to Repeat

Jordin
I was about to marry someone I didn’t love.
While his success could catapult my career in journalism, it did nothing to make me want to live out my happily ever after with him. He wasn’t my one. I knew that the moment the man who loved me with everything in him was taken away from me. I knew I could never love another like I loved him, but I had to move on, even when I couldn’t have the one man who made my world spin off its axis and land into the palm of his hands.

The moment those bars closed behind me, I knew things were about to change. When the judge gave me fifteen years, my only thought was Dinny, and how I had failed her. I didn’t want her to do that time with me, but I assured her that once I was released, we were going to get back what we had lost. I warned her multiple times not to take another man seriously. Apparently, she didn’t believe me… and now I have to make a believer out of her.
Nothing or no one is going to stand in the way of the promise I made to her. We were destined to live in this moment together forever.
