New Excerpt: Revised

Prologue:

“ Sadie why are you acting up? Why are you trembling?”, please let

me help you”!

The room got pitched dark and Sadie felt the room begin to spin rapidly.

“ Stay away from me Dante!, or I swear I will kill you”. “ You have

hurt me for the very last time!”

As she said this Dante tried to walk quietly towards her.

“ Please baby- Why don’t you let me call the doctor so he can help you?

After a brief silence- Sadie grabs a gun.

“ Sadie please put the gun down”!, he said urgently. “Please baby,

don’t do this” ! “ Give me the gun, okay, I promise you darlin, we can

get through this!”, he said in a stern tone.

“ No! Dante, don’t try to make me forget all you have done to me” !

suddenly goes off...

Her emotions were running so high that you could see the puffiness in her swollen eyes from all the non-stop crying. It was so hard to believe that Sadie was once a very attractive green eyed red head that captivated a room with her profound beauty. After a few minutes the nurse noticed that Sadie w...

Excerpt : John Marshall Law School

The day finally arrived. I was going to be attending John Marshall Law School in Atlanta. This was one of the proudest moments of my father’s life. He was absolutely thrilled, that his only child, a daughter had been accepted. This made my father very happy and he just thought it was so poetic, that I would soon be a member of such an elite group as he was. After all, my father Jackson Martin had been an alumni of John Marshall Law School and maintained a perfect 4.0 gpa and had been one of the top in his class. He always wanted to keep his legacy going and now all eyes were on me. I was excited in being able to finally start at John Marshall so that I could finally have my freedom or so I thought. You see my father did not like the fact that I had chosen to live with my boyfriend Dante Caryle. He was furious and always had his re...
