I hear a strangled howl from below the floor under Jeff.  Looking at me they both make a move to grab me.  Dodging Jeff and snatching the other guy’s wrist I twist him around and shove his face into the grill of the tractor.  His head making a sickening thud and he falls to the ground down for the count.  That was too easy.  I turn to face Jeff and he is on me before I can dodge him again.  He tackles me to the floor and lands on top of me.  He stinks, like halitosis and mildew.  He maneuvers his legs so he is straddling me and grabs my neck with both hands choking me.  I use my arms, thrusting them up between his breaking his choke hold on me and knocking him off balance.  I am able to jump up before he has time to recover and kick him in the face as hard as I can.  Twice. With them both out cold I reach down and remove the laces from my boots, and hog tie them both.  Fucking animals, serves them right.&

“I think I am going to need help in the shower.  Wouldn’t want me to fall now, would you?” he says with a devilish grin and winks at me.  “Do it!” Lily says, and I say fuck it and take off my giant t-shirt.  “Oooooooh you hussy!” Lily sings at me.  “Go away Lily” I tell her, and she does.I look at Gabe, clearly surprised, one hand on his hip and the other nervously stroking his thick beard.  Standing there in nothing but my panties I put my hands on my hips and ask, “What? I cant get my favorite night shirt all wet!”  pressing his lips together he hums “mmmh mmh mmh” and picks me up by the waist lifting me over the edge of the tub standing me up in the shower.  I yelp at the sudden motion, and Gabe kneels in front of me with his hands on my hips he traces the seam of my panties and pulls them down.  I lift my legs one at a time letting him remove

I can’t believe I fell asleep after having already slept for almost a whole day.  True, I wasn’t getting any sleep the whole time Gabe was unconscious, but you would think 18 hours would be enough.  Im awakened by someone kissing my head.  As I am stretching out I open my eyes to the most beautiful man I have ever seen.  “hey Gabe.” I yawn.  “Hey” he says sitting down on the bed beside me.  With his hand resting on my hip he is looking down at me stretched out on his bed like I am the most interesting thing to have graced his presence.  He really is a beautiful man.  I'm looking up at his green eyes and my eyes travel down to his pouty lips.  Yep, I'm a gonner.  I prop my head up on my elbow and he puts his hand on my waist.  “How long have I been asleep?” I ask.  “bout 45 minutes”, he replies.  Well that’s not so bad.  When I sit up he

Presenting the speech, that I just gave Gabe, is usually uncomfortable for me.  In the past, sharing my story came after someone witnessed me do something that defies the laws of nature and science.  I often feel like I need to explain myself, like I have done something wrong.  I didn’t get that feeling with him.  He listened to me intently and held me close as I continued to power through my story. When I finish talking, I am sitting cross legged leaning into his chest, and he has both arms wrapped around me.  He shifts his body slightly turning his head to the side so that he can get a better look at me.  He brushes my hair behind my ear and putting his hand behind my head he pulls me in and kisses me.  “I’m glad she did.”  He says. “Me too” I smile at him. I bring my hands up to his face and scratch at his beard gently, it’s softer than I thought it would be.  My hands

I can’t believe that Gabe, the kind of guy you picture in your head when you think of your typical tough guy, the one that doesn’t invest as much in romance as he does work on his truck and drinking beer, just said that to me.  The benefit of being me is that I know it was the truth.  I felt it in every word.  Maybe he is right, maybe I should look more into finding out what makes me the way I am. “Hannah, I know that you are afraid if you go digging you might not like what you find, but Gabe is right.”  Lily tells me.  “He isn’t going to let you leave, and he really is prepared to do whatever it takes to protect you.”  I’m still latched on to Gabe with my head buried in his shoulder as he walks us back into his bedroom.  “Lily, I really tried to fight it” I tell her.  “I know you did, but there was no reason to.  This is where you are supposed to be.”&nb
