Give it Up

A broken past doesn't stop him from wanting a future with her.

I'd never wanted anything for myself until Nina stepped into my life. We were just two lives that came from ruined childhoods, growing up together, relying on each other. And my sole mission was to protect her at all costs.
I was happy and content making her my priority.
Until I wasn't because I wanted her as mine.
We were connected in all senses of the word. But I wasn't a good man. I was a member of the Devil's Boys MC, brothers in arms who would do anything to get by in life.
And Nina was the center of it all, an integral part of all of our lives.
But it was that thread that drew us together that kept me away.
I was afraid of losing the one thing that mattered most to me, of crossing an invisible line from being friends to lovers.
But without risk there wasn't reward, and Nina would be the greatest reward I'd ever gotten.
