First there was Him. He was my rock, my life's navigator – my everything. I shut my eyes for Just. One. Moment. When I wake there's nothing but cold. Pebbled asphalt abrades my skin. The rain is cool on my flesh – washing the blood away; my husband's death. The pregnancy he never knew about. Then there was Her. My savior is unrefined. Temperamental. Strong. Deliberate. And... beautiful. My husband is gone. I don't want anyone to replace him. I don't need anyone else. Except Her.
