(Selena) Being the sole guardian of my sassy ten year old sister is tough, especially when it came to paying the bills and making ends meet. That’s how I met him. I was working late one night after closing hours at Marco's diner, taking out the trash to the dumpster in the dark alley behind the restaurant. I witnessed something I wasn't supposed to see and ended up held against the wall with a knife to my throat. (Mars) He was sloppy. He should have made sure the diner was empty before taking a life in the alley out back. He pressed the knife to her pretty throat and demanded she keep her mouth shut about what she had witnessed, or he would be forced to do the same to her. That should have been the end of it. Except, it wasn't. He couldn't get her out of his head, he couldn't stay away from her. He needed to learn everything about this girl and make her his.
