My name is Angel, I am an average height woman with dirty blonde hair, jade green eyes and sharp cheekbones. People always say that I am beautiful, which I know is true but I never use it to my advantage. My family has taught me to always work hard and to not let people walk all over me. Today though things are going to change and it's not all for the best.

Never in a million years would I have thought things could be so horrible, I thought to myself looking down at myself and seeing that my pantyhose are ripped. I normally wouldn't mind because I am usually in casual clothes, I love a good pair of holey jeans and a t-shirt, but today I dressed up because I have a meeting with my employees.

I run a very unique restaurant that caters to all cultures around the world, and it's called Fefe's travels.

I picked up my pace and pulled out my phone to check the time, a few steps later and I ran into what felt like a brick wall and my coffee spilt all over me and the "brick wall". You have got to be kidding me, I thought to myself looking up quickly to apologize to whoever I ran into. I tilted my head up and up until I came to a face that took my breath away. The person I ran into had to be the most handsome man I ever saw, chiseled chin and cheekbones that could have carved from stone, almond shaped amber eyes with long lashes, a sharp nose that was a little crooked like he had been in a fight or two before. His skin was a perfect olive color that I wish I could have but my skin is like a porcelain doll, and I was very jealous of people like him.

As I continued to stare I realized that the man was talking to me, " Are you okay miss, I didn't mean to run into. I hope you didn't get burned by your coffee, let me get you a new shirt please", he said to me his voice a perfect baritone that made goosebumps appear on my flesh. Honestly I didn't know it then but I should have turn and ran away, but I was so captivated by this man that I ended up taking him up on his offer and even trading numbers. This man will change my life in ways I never thought possible, and I gained the best thing in the world someone who will always stay by me and cherish me.

After changing and saying goodbye to the man I ran into which I learned his name is Zade which I thought was perfect name for such a unique man. I walked into my restaurant and straight to the back room where the meeting is going to be held and started getting things set up for when the employees came in. The meeting was going to be on which new food we should put in the menu and everyone must bring in a dish they prepared and give a detailed talk on why it should be in the menu. I did my best to get my head in the meeting and to clear it of Zade as people started to file into the room. "Alright everyone let's get to it today and then get ready to open for the day", I said with as much enthusiasm as I could muster, today is going to be a long day I said to myself.

Today is finally over, I can now go home and take a relaxing bath, I thought to myself while locking up the doors. Today was a very busy day for restaurant, more people came in to try our cuisine. Mostly because as usual people can't make up their minds on what they want. I am one of those people which is why I thought the type of restaurant I opened was an amazing idea, nowhere else is like it which is good. No matter how busy it was though my mind kept going back to the man I met today, ever since I ran into him I have felt different.

I feel as if my skin is burning and my body is filled with electricity, it is very euphoric. I ignore the feeling while I walk down the street, my mind keeps thinking of everything that might be changing. I have never been with anyone, I've had some relationships where we kissed and hold hands but nothing more I was never into them sexually. Zade has me feeling things I never felt before, I was flustered in places I never knew could feel like that. My heart is pounding like a mad man pounding on his prison door. While I'm walking I feel a vibration in my pocket so I grab my phone out of my jean pockets, and look down seeing it's Zade a smile blooming on my face.

I quickly swipe my finger over the keyboard feeling anxious and excited. "How was work, be careful going home tonight", read the text from Zade. "I am walking home now, being as careful as I possibly can. Thank you for checking on me", I replied back to him.

His reply came almost instantly, "If you will let me know when you get home that way I know you made it in one piece", he replied with a smiley face which made my heart skip. No one ever tried to make sure I get home safe, I have a feeling that Zade is different from people I am around now.

After another fifteen minutes made it to my house, walking up the stairs to the front door I see a package in front of the door. I pick it up carefully seeing who it's from and my stomach drops, I hoped to never hear from him ever again. I tried to put the darkness in my past where I would never think of it again but he seems to have different plans for me.

My mind starts to wander to what happened back then. The phone call I got that one horrible day it broke me in a million pieces, the cop on the other end telling me that my mother was brutally stabbed to death, and my best friend was raped that same day. The only good thing is that the rapist bragged about killing my mother and how I was the reason for both things happening that day. When they told me who did it I knew why it happened, I had put his lover in prison for molestation and when he was taken away he told me I would regret it, and now I know they will never leave me alone but I will never break. The burning under my flesh got worse and my hand started to glow a little which made me drop the package in shock, I started to feel such a strong sense of anger towards him it was time I kept my promise to my mother I would not let these men get away alive this time. I had a feeling what was happening to me was going to help with that I just hope Zade won't hate me for what is to come.
