Chapter 14: Bella - Martin

Bella

My worst nightmare had become a reality. My heart had been shattered. Being a private investigator was nothing like it was portrayed in the movies. It was either boring or dreadful at times. This was the most terrifying part. The part where I lied and deceived the man who could turn out to be the love of my life because I was so distraught about losing him that I told him about the investigation and he broke up with me, and I then decided to follow him into the viper's nest because I did think I could save him because I was "the agent." Like an idiot.

As it turns out, I was a lousy agent. I'd completely ruined everything. Martin still despised me. Only now was he in harm's way, I was in danger, his mother was in danger, my daughter was in danger, and my grandma was in danger. And this jerk had his finger in my mouth.
