I couldn't sleep last night, even though Alyssa was in my arms and settled me more than I would of been without her, my mind was racing with a million ideas about how to keep her safe and away from Leon. I couldn't hide her out here forever, I mean, I would if I had too but that's no life to live, for her to be locked away like a princess in a tower.
"What you thinking about?" Alyssa asked reaching her hand up to my face stroking my cheek with her thumb.
"Nothing, babe."
"Don't lie to me, Trey."
I sighed out loud unsure what to actually say to her. "Just about how I'm going to keep you safe."
"Can't we just go to the police?"
"I don't think the police are going to be any help in this situation, baby. Leon isn't someone to be messed with, he's probably got police on payroll."
