Never Tied Down

This is the conclusion to Kalli and Riot’s story, part two of the Never Duet. Due to mature themes, it is intended for adult readers. I miss him. I miss Marcus. I miss Riot. I miss them. Pushing Riot away when Marcus died was an act of desperate self-preservation. I didn’t love him any less, didn’t blame him for Marcus’ death, but I couldn’t be with him and deal with the crushing weight of guilt that tore me down every single day. So, I moved on. Or tried to, anyway. Life, of course, pushed us back together. I still don’t know if I’m strong enough to keep myself away from him. Or if I even want to. Besides, something tells me life isn’t done trying to break me.
