Traitor - Kate Benson - Bog

A traitor lies within. CALLIE I met him at a basement party when we were fourteen. I was looking for an adventure, he was looking for an escape. That night, we found both and never looked back. We traveled on a wayward path for far too long. Tommy turned to a life in the shadows. Me? A life between the sheets. All that time, I thought I was addicted to sex. Turns out, I was just addicted to him. We took a lot of wrong turns, met a lot of bad people on the way to the salvation we've managed to find in each others arms. I thought when we walked away, there were no loose ends. Turns out, I was wrong about that, too. TOMMY By the time she came to me, I was already a walking statistic. That night, though, something inside me sparked to life. A fate neither of us could comprehend erupted, exploded. The second I saw her in that basement fifteen years ago, I think a part of me already knew. I took her hand and we never looked back. I gave her excitement, she gave me hope. For over a decade, we belonged to the dark corners of the city, denying ourselves nothing in the name of lust and survival. When I finally walked away, I made a lot of enemies, but it was never about them, only her. It's always been her. I never regretted my choice to walk away, because it was that choice that gave me the courage to finally take her as mine and mine alone. At first, we thought they'd let us go. For months, we thought we'd escaped. We were wrong. Our past has come knocking and now, it wants us back.
