Chapter 21: GIDEON

"Baby, it's not that, it's just…I gave it some thought and in order for us to get your father's name removed as your guardian and take away all his power over you, this is the best thing to do. I just don't want to wait any longer.”

“If you want to have a ceremony and celebration later then that's what we'll do, but I want us to be married as soon as possible." There that sounded feasible, though why the fuck I was protecting that asshole I don’t know. You’re not protecting him you’re protecting her heart the truth would destroy her.

"I don't need a ceremony Gideon remember, that was for your mom and your friends. I don't have anyone to invite so..." She shrugged her shoulders, having no idea that she'd just gutted me with her innocent acceptance of her fate up to this point. She'd also just sealed Cliff Sanders and Keith Stark's fate they were both fucked.
