I smile at my boyfriend as I set the table ready for the delicious dinner that's bubbling on the stove. I know I'm everything to him. I've made absolutely sure I'm his perfect match, in every way...
Jay and I have only known each other a short while, but whenever I gaze into his gorgeous brown eyes I know he's the one. His little house by the deep forest's edge is perfect for the two of us—no internet, no phone signal, and no neighbours. I'm about as far from my past as I could be. N Warm in Jay's arms, I can persuade myself it's ok that he disappears for hours when he thinks I'm asleep at night, returning the next morning, glittery eyed and tense. And I don't mind that he likes to be in charge of our money, our time, of me. He's just looking after me, keeping me safe from the outside world, because he loves me.
