The Defiance novel

---- pushed me hard that I stumbled back on my steps. Straightening my shirt against my body, I studied his face. He resembled her so much. And maybe that's one of the reasons why I can't punch him in the face whenever we fight. Because he fucking looked like his sister. My Alice. "You know I can't do that. I've waited for years. I did my part so you give me my price", I tried reasoning though the thought of his another attempt of his to take her away from me started a boil in my veins.

"And here you always think that she is just some price you needed to win over. That's the problem, man! You always see here less than a woman she deserved!" And with that, I lost it. 1 laughed mockingly at him before lunging on him knocking him on the wall. He winced at the impact but I couldn't care less. All I've wanted was to get back to him for belittling whatever I've always felt for his sister. To the woman I only love. "DON'T. YOU. FUCKING. GO.

THERE.", I hissed greeting my teeth that my gums ached. "We're cool but never when it comes to my sister. She deserves a normal happy life and you, we cannot give her that. Your life is too dangerous for her. And you signing for the CEO position on the company she is working at would only draw attention to her. She'll be ---- in danger. She'll be hurt and worst...", his next word was cut off when the back of his head hit the wall after I gave him another shove. "T can protect her.

Do you think they can hurt her while I'm beside her? While I'm here? Well, they are fucking dead for trying or even thinking about it. 1 will kill them with my bare hands", I released him taking my steps back. "Yeah? And here I thought I have given you enough time to forget about her. Why can't you just be just like the other guys that forget girls in a blink of an eye? It's been years and you are still stuck on her?

Just fucking great!", he threw his hands in the air in disbelief and brushing them over his face. "Well, I just can't. And I am not sorry I love her this way", I watched him carefully. He could hit me on the face for coming back again and trying to win her over. We've wanted the same thing. We've wanted her safe for always but to leave her alone was never an option for me. It's swim or sink and I would gladly sink to the bottom of any ocean for her.

"Well, she doesn't love you anymore ", he smirked and that really hit a nerve again. I know that it's not true. She was still affected by me. And that gave me hope that she still felt the same way, at least a little. As long as I still affected here it meant something for me and I was sure to make her crazy in love on me again. ---- "J don't care", I gritted my teeth trying to lie through them. "Can't you see a reason in here?

She'll be in danger and you know it very well so don't go screaming that stupid love you have for her" "J, SAID. I WILL FUCKING KEEP HER SAFE!" I growled in frustration. His eyes measured me and calculated my words. We stared at each other trying to win our own arguments. "You better make sure of that or if the first danger made a call on her, you'll never see her ever again", Dean finally spat. His threat was never empty and I knew it.

He was one of my greatest men and he could hide her so well from me. But like I would ever let that happen. Hell will rise. "And you say that when you are here leaving her alone in your house?!"", I accused when the realization that he was here dawned on me, she was fucking alone! "Don't worry. The security on my house is three times better than yours" My eyes narrowed on him.

I knew that was true but the thought of her having no one with here couldn't be lessen with his reassurance of the safety of his house. "T am warning you. Don't hurt my sister, she doesn't ---- deserve it" "T know" "you know? And yet you are here again." "T just can't stay away for another month. Years are enough and I am on my wit's end. I can't just rely on whatever you are telling me about her.

I get that you are her brother and you worry about her and wanted the best for here but I need her or I'll go crazy", I ran my fingers through my hair breathing hard. "Then lose your mind, like I fucking care", he stormed out the door, anger still boiling for me. I smiled at his retreating back. He really is my best friend.
