Fated Series. Book #2 "Be possessive of me, own me, keep me, because if you do then nothing and no one else can." - Maddox. //UPDATES EVERY FRIDAY// My name is Maddox Vallero, and I'm dead. Well, that's a lie. I'm very much alive, but only in the walking, talking, breathing kind of way. The ghosts in my head, they reminded me that I'm only awake physically but mentally my sanity is as faded as my destroyed soul. I've spent the last few years of my life just watching time slip past me, and I let it. I let the seconds tick by. Life moved on, but I didn't move on from coffin I was locked in, I'm still there, dying. I gave up before I even opened my eyes this morning. So, when I'm smiling at you and promising you whatever, it's a lie. You shouldn't believe, but you will. I'm too good at it. It's what I've been doing my whole life. I stand in front of you with my sly grin, promising you pots of gold, only to turn around and steal it from you. I lie. I cheat. I trick. I fade. I play. I make you believe it all. But the cold fact is that I played myself. Now, my sanity is no longer in intact, and I can't see where my lies begin and end. Or I thought I couldn't. But then I was forced to hire an executive assistant. And guess what? I'm fucked because I lie, and she doesn't believe me. I trick, and she doesn't fall for it. I grin, and she tells me to drop the act. She's the weakening ball set on knocking down all my coping tactics. So, I've met my match but it's more complicated. I've met the one person who's been able to put me in place and force me to admit that I'm living among shadows. Seems simple, huh? Wrong. Life is full of complicated pasts, present, and futures that have gathered together to haunt us both. I want her, and I have attachment issues. She wants me, but she has commitment issues. Then there's fate, and it's a cunning fox of it's own. So, now start taking risks.
