Forgotten: Luca - Book 1

Luca: I had to leave him behind, no other choice. That's what I try to convince myself, though it doesn't ease my sleepless nights or drown out his repeated words from that day we first met: I just want to go home. It was eight years ago, and he was a terrified 14-year-old named Billy, the one I had to abandon to save someone else. But he's not Billy anymore, and he's not that scared kid lost in a world where he was just a possession. He's Remy now, and though I didn't recognize him when we crossed paths again, he sure remembers me. Walking away from him a second time would be simpler, especially since that's what he wants. But I can't leave the tormented young man without at least trying to make amends first. The issue is, even if I can make up for leaving Remy behind all those years ago, I'm not certain I can walk away from him twice. I'm not sure what that entails, but it terrifies me. In my world, needing someone comes with a heavy price, one that even I can't afford to pay. Remy: He brought hope when I had none left, but he forgot about me like the rest. I fight, it's who I am. But when Luca Covello entered the dark, filthy room where my captors held me so long ago, I had already made the decision I hadn't in three years since being taken from my home and family - to give up. Then he appeared, a beacon of light in the darkness, giving me something new to fight for, a reason to keep going - until the day Luca was supposed to return for me. But he never came. Now, eight years later, he wants to don the hero's cape and rescue me. I don't need saving anymore, not now, not ever. With two years of sobriety, a good job, and a decent apartment, I've put my past where it belongs. No one, not even the attractive, enigmatic businessman, will disrupt my life. If he seeks forgiveness, he won't find it here. And if he's after something else...let's just say, once I'm finished with him, he won't forget me this time.
