Love me truly by Amanda Pearson (good books to read for women txt) 📖

you're becoming soft bruh," I gave him a death glare. "She's been kidnapped by Carson," I spoke through clenched teeth. No one realizes how awful he really is besides Rose and I, I seen what he can do I swear if he lays a hand on her. I got up and picked up his phone, all of a sudden it began to ring I answered fast. "Where the fuck are you?" I yelled through the phone, getting even more angry. "It's a secret my friend," a cruel laugh coming the phone. Sounds of knives being sharpened, I heard rose scream. I have to get to them fast, taking my phone out of my pocket now tracing the phone he's  been using, which has been traced to an old warehouse.
I looked over at Eriel. "I'm on your side man, let's go," he nodded towards the door.

Roses pov

"Don't you know what happens when you run yet, you'll always get caught kitten" a sickening laugh came after Carson's words it made me cringe. I feel small, weak, powerless. "D-don't call me that," stuttering trying to act strong, but my voice betrayed me. Carson smirked and grabbed my face in his oversized hand. "Kitten, I can call you whatever the hell I want, and  considering your shackled in chains your should keep quiet pet," he had a smirk on his face of entertainment.
I ripped my face away from his hand. "G-go fuck yourself Carson," I sneered. "Oh darling, do you want to know who gave you out," he had an evil glint in his eye as he turned to look behind him, my chest was heavy as the boy came closer,  a smirk placed his face what into a murderous smile. No, no he couldn't of. "Hello my sweet older sister," Tanner.
Torture

James pov.

We got to the old warehouse where they were keeping Rose. All I can think of is her safety. I looked over at Eriel, I was full of adrenaline and determinism, I will get her and keep her safe. We got out of the car, handguns in the front of our belts. We are going to go in there with guns blazing.
Eriel behind me as we walk towards the entrance I opened the door but but as soon as it did I got kicked in the back and flew inside scraping my hands on the concrete. "Son of a bitch," I quickly got up and ran to the door. I tried to open the once unlocked door which is now locked. "Eriel what the hell open the damn door!" Throwing myself against the door to try and get it open but it wouldn't budge. "Not today man, not yet," Ariel's voice came from behind the door. I looked around to see if there was any other way out, there was another door I opened it, unfortunately for me three guys were waiting by the door, none of them I knew. Oh hell Rose what did we get into? They grabbed me but I moved fast and got away I grounded my teeth and ran towards the next door and went into the next room. What I seen tearing my heart apart. The once beautiful shy girl who I love is being held up by chains blood and tears made her hair stick to her face, cuts all down her arms and legs her head turned laid tired on her shoulders tape over her mouth, face swollen from cuts and bruises. I heard the door behind me slam shut. "I see you've come for the show," I heard Carson's voice from behind. "What did you do to her?" My teeth were clenched, all I could see was red of anger. I want to kill this sick bastard slow and painfully. "I showed her what happens when she tries to run,"
"You're a monster, and I swear I'm going to kill you," my voice low, calmness deadly. He laughed. "If I'm the monster who are you, you're not exactly a saint James, if anything you're a spawn of the devil," My hands tightened on my gun. "If I'm a spawn of the devil, why the fuck are you challenging me?" Carson shook his head. "If I don't who will, someone has to,"
My hands were suddenly chained I couldn't move the other gang members forcefully held my head in roses broken state her head rolled around on her shoulders trying to pick her head up but she was too weak. Tanner was standing over her with pure hatred and perversity over her scared and freshly wounded body he grabbed her hair making her wince up at him. He kicked her in the stomach doubling over as much as the chains let her as she threw up blood. Adrenaline and finally my adrenaline kicked in.

Such a broken girl

Rose's POV.

I can't think see, speak barely hear, at this point I just want to die. Please make this fast I can't bare it any longer. I can't even hold myself up my ankle dragging on the floor, eyes so badly swollen unable to open my breathing shallow.
Another blow to my head too weak and done to care. Bullets, that's what I heard before I got swept in the dark abyss of my mind.

James's POV.

Bullets. I put one straight into Carson's thick brutal horrible head, killing him as straight as a nail. I put the barrel on the back of of tanners head, taking safety off the gun ready to pull the trigger. Carson was exactly right, I am a monster. -
Right before I could pull the trigger I heard Rose's hoarse rough voice. "J-James, w-wait," she coughed out. I shook my head, and stared right into her swollen shut eyes. But I seen the side of him smiling. "I'm sorry I can't let him get away," And I pulled the trigger.

Rose screamed for her brother but I just couldn't let that sick bastard live, I'd never forgive myself if that ever happened to her again. I put the gun in my gun holster and gathered Rose in my arms taking the chains off her, if anyone else tries to get in my way tonight, they're all going to die. I took stray hairs from her blood-covered face, sitting on the floor rocking her back and forth gently and kissing the top of her head. The adrenaline gone and as she fell asleep I took her back to the car, laying her on her back on the backseat. I never felt like this and it's tearing me apart, Rose. Rose did this to me, her and her blue eyes, her beautiful smile, and I know for a fact this isn't lust, I knew that feeling, this feeling was completely different, it was pain, it was need to make sure she was okay, this was something I'll never feel with anyone else, and I honestly have been  with more girls then I can count. It's all her, shes all I need. I can't explain it, if I ever lost her.. it would be the end, not the end of our romance, no. That's the beginning, our story will last forever, but days as the living would end. Driving to the hospital, the satisfaction of knowing those son's of bitches can never touch her again. Carrying her into the hospital nurses ran to us taking Rose away to help her, sending her in on a gurney into a hospital room as doctors raced in. I put a hand through my short blonde hair covering my face with my hands. Dear lord save her, I could feel the stare of someone standing over me. I looked up at an ashen face of Rose's father. I got up slowly and gave him a stern look, my hands and fists trying to stay calm. "What are you doing here?" shutting my eyes so I didn't have to look at him. "She's my daughter, I'm the emergency contact. I have a right to be here," I shook my head at his words. "No, your son was the one of the people to hurt your daughter, I'm the one who saved her, and I will never see her hurt like that again," Stared at him seriously, all he did was nod, turn and walked away.  

Dead or alive

 Rose's POV

Finally able to open my eyes a little as the swelling goes down, James sitting beside my bed laying his head on the mattress, just realizing that this isn't my bed, or my room. It was a Hospital, the smell of disinfectant everywhere. I swept a hand through his hair, everything was in pain, and I knew I wasn't going to make it this time, I felt it getting harder to breath. "James, I can see now, just please, dead or alive, please just love me truly?" James's head looked up his green eyes stuck on mine as he leaned and kissed me one last kiss. "I always have loved you truly," He whispered, I smiled gently, that was my goodbye, my final confession. I realized even after a short time I really did most truly love him, I will watch over him and love him more then I will when I was well. I finally understand the words 'I love you'. I laid my head back onto the pillow and let myself go into the darkness of death.

James's POV

"Rose?" A long beep came from the heart monitor. "NO, wake up, Rose! Doctor, nurse someone, help!" Doctors filled the room getting the cardiac defibrillator. "Clear!" and shocked her, but nothing happened, they done it again. But again nothing happened. They done it one last time everything was spinning, spiraling down as I realized it was too late. She's gone.
