Rule Number Four by Nicky Shanks

My only goal is to earn back Julie’s trust, to protect her against forces still hell-bent on keeping us apart.
My supposed best friend remains a threat by wanting what’s mine. He has made no secret about his intentions toward Julie—that was his first mistake. His second mistake is underestimating me, thinking there’s a chance I’ll let him lay a hand on her. Truth is, I’ll kill him first.
Julie is mine, and mine alone. We’ve come too far to give up now, and if I have to destroy everyone who gets in the way of our future together—I’ll do it gladly.
Our story began with a few simple rules, but now I say…
Fuck the rules.
