Viper's Touch

I swore I'd never let another woman look into my heart, but Jade didn't need to see to know the type of man I am.ViperAfter being framed and ending up in prison, I was done with women. I wanted nothing to do with them. A woman was the reason I landed in jail in the first place, so I wasn't ever going to let another put me in so much risk again.My brothers say I'm callous and they tell me I need to let go of my demons, but the ghosts that haunt me aren't like the ones they've faced. I was betrayed by a woman I was going to spend the rest of my life with. They wouldn't understand, but how could they? All of their ol' ladies are awesome, loyal, and they've got the purest of hearts.Nothing in my life is different but it's alright with me. Until one day my entire world gets thrown upside down. Nerd catches a glimpse of a woman on a security camera. She's cowering behind a dumpster and blood is running down her skin. I knew then I needed to go see if she was alright and from that moment forward everything changed. The moment Jade came into my life, I started to feel again. I only hope I don't push this marvelous woman away.
