Aber es gibt eine Frau, die mich zu brechen droht. Ich wusste es von dem Moment an, als ich sie vor vier Jahren kennengelernt habe. Sie ist so jung und naiv, sodass es leicht zu verstehen ist, wie eine Frau wie sie sich in einen Mann wie mich verlieben kann.Sie durchschaut die Lügen und Manipulationen nicht.Sie glaubt, sie weiß, wer ich wirklich bin, aber sie sieht nur, was ich sie sehen lasse.Ich habe alles in meiner Macht Stehende getan, um sie vor mir zu beschützen, aber jetzt muss ich etwas tun, das mich innerlich zerreißen könnte. Ich muss sie verraten. Ich weiß, dass sie mir nie verzeihen wird, aber hier geht es nicht nur um einen Job.Jemandes Leben steht auf dem Spiel, und zu ihrem Unglück ist es ein Leben, das ich nicht aufs Spiel setzen kann.Sie wird mir nie verzeihen - falls sie überlebt.Und auch ich werde mir nie verzeihen.Aber diese entscheidenden Momente im Leben sind es, die uns zu dem machen, was wir sind. Ich weiß, dass ich immer der sein werde, der den Job zu Ende bringt.Koste es, was es wolle.

Ich wurde als Beschützer geboren und werde auch als solcher sterben. Dass ich das Militär verlassen habe, hat nichts daran geändert. Deshalb habe ich mein Unternehmen gegründet, Owens Protective Services.Meine Männer sind meine Familie, meine Brüder. Und die Menschen, die ich beschütze, sind meine Mission.Was den Feind angeht ... so muss man manchmal eben die Spülung der menschlichen Toilette betätigen. Aber auch wenn die Sicherheit meiner Klienten immer absolute Priorität für mich hat, noch nie habe ich mich für jemanden so eingesetzt wie für sie.Beth.Sie behält ihre Geheimnisse für sich, so wie ich meine Gefühle für mich behalte. Ich war stets in der Lage, meine Jobs zu meistern, aber bei ihr gerät alles außer Kontrolle. Ich weiß nicht, ob ich ihr trauen kann oder nicht, vor allem, wenn sie mitten in einen Auftrag stolpert. Sie scheint unschuldig zu sein, aber sind sie das nicht immer? Ich sehe eine verängstigte Frau, die vor jedem zurückweicht, der sich ihr nähert. Sehe ihren Drang, wegzulaufen. Aber ich sehe auch das Kätzchen mit den Krallen, das bereit ist, zu kämpfen, wenn es jemand wagt, sie zu verfolgen. Tief im Inneren weiß ich, dass sie mein Schicksal ist.Mein Grund zu kämpfen.Ich werde ihre Geheimnisse aufdecken, und dann werde ich meinen Job machen und jeden ausschalten, der es wagt, sie zu bedrohen.

Er ist ein mürrischer, hartherziger Milliardär. Ein Workaholic, der Perfektion erwartet.Rücksichtslos, streng und unerbittlich in allen Belangen, nicht nur was sein Business angeht. Aber das ist nicht der Mann, in den ich mich verliebt habe. Ich werde nie den redegewandten Mann vergessen, der an jenem Tag das Taxi mit mir teilte - so unbeschwert und voller Leben.Ich steckte in einer lieblosen, arrangierten Ehe fest und wusste nicht mehr weiter.Bis er auftauchte und meine Welt auf den Kopf stellte. Doch das war damals, und jetzt ist alles anders. Der Mann, den ich kannte, ist weg, und alles, was von ihm übrig ist, ist ein dunkles Loch, wo einst sein Herz war, und Kohlebrocken anstelle der warmen, liebevollen Augen, die vor nicht allzu langer Zeit noch jeder meiner Bewegungen folgten.Der romantische, süße Mann, den ich kennengelernt habe, versteckt sich jetzt hinter einer undurchdringlichen Maske der Gleichgültigkeit.Ich bin mir einfach nicht sicher, ob es sich für einen Mann zu kämpfen lohnt, den ich kaum wiedererkenne.
