Chapter Seven
    Sadie
     
     
    Sadie's childhood had been awful, always hungry, always in the same outgrown clothes. The kids at her school had tormented her. The mayor's kids had especially hated her, because of the rumors and their physical resemblance. She never understood their animosity; they had a loving mom and dad, and everything else Sadie could have wanted.
    Anything from verbal to physical bullying went unnoticed by any of the adults. When Sadie turned fourteen, the type of harassment changed. Boys found her attractive, but as her mother's daughter, she deserved no respect.
    That led up to the day she meet Jackson. Just turned sixteen, Sadie had no friends, but she'd had a new job at the convenience store. With the new job, came new hope. One day, she'd be free of Terrace Texas, and it's people. She'd start a new life; one in which her mother's choices didn't reflect on Sadie. Her self-esteem was also rising, and she no longer accepted her mother's abuse.
    Instead, she spent most of her free time by the lake. There she'd loose herself, sketching for hours. That was where Craig, her mother's latest boyfriend, found Sadie. He worked at an oil-rig, but when he was off work, he stayed with Tara.
    Except for slapping Sadie around a few times, he'd never tried to really hurt her. But that day, he'd immediately pounced on her. Jackson had swooped in like her personal miracle. He'd pulled Craig off before he got in more than a few punches. He'd changed her life, swooped her away to what she thought would be a fairy tale. She'd fallen in love with him like only a teenager can. Then she deluded herself into thinking he felt the same way. They were always together, always happy in each others' company. He proved her wrong in the end. He'd left her broken.
    Finally arriving at her apartment building, they stop and both get off.
    “ Thanks for the ride. You didn't have to leave your own party for me,” Sadie says.  
    She drinks him in, unable to get over how much he's changed. He'd been clean cut, where now he's scruffy and tattooed. His shoulders are even more impressive than six years ago, like he does physical labor daily.
    Those amazing hazel eyes now have a few lines around them. Damn, he'd gotten better with age. It almost hurts to look at him.
    She can't let herself feel anything around him, it would be fucking stupid.
    “ Thanks and bye,” she knows she sounds nervous, but she manages to smile through it.  
    This might be the last time she ever sees him. Despite everything, she drinks him in. The shape of his eyes, his hard mouth, his shoulders, shoulders are it for her. She is a shoulder person. His are wide and muscled and since his tattoos disappear under his shirt, he probably looks better without a shirt.
    He doesn't smile back, “What the hell are you doing? Getting involved with a loser like Zack!”
    His huge arms are crossed and she has a hard time pulling her gaze from his right arm that is covered in beautiful, yet manly tattoos.
    God, he's intimidating, “Did you miss the part where I punched him in the balls? He's been stalking me. Not in a romance novel way. He's been stalking me in a horror novel way! And guess what? It's all your dumb club's fault! He started stalking me since your club took over Climax!”
    Her little speech makes him even angrier, “It gets better! I saved your ass six years ago!
    And you become a fucking stripper!”
    “ Fuck, so you do remember me,” she doesn't even make it a question.  
    He growls and stalks towards Sadie, “We'll talk inside.”
    His tall frame leans towards her and she moves back slowly.
    Just because he is freakishly tall doesn't mean he can use it to intimidate her! He should try being only a few inches over five feet, and see how he likes it!
    “ Like hell,” she snorts, “No, I don't know you anymore, Jackson. You're a bad biker dude now. Forgive me, but I don't
