Fool Me Thrice (Blood Wars)

By K.C. Benson

You could probably say I got lucky. I say I shouldn't have even needed to be lucky in the first place.

Those fools screwed up with betting on my life and tossing me to the streets, but lucky for them, I was a forgiving gal. When I felt like it of course.
So what do I do? I let them in again because I'm a fool like that. Then bam, the universe decides to throw more curveballs at me because I get too comfortable.

Rabids getting worse? Check.
Psycho mother on my tail? Check.
My father? Check.
Those men of mine? Double check.

I tell you, I'm getting really sick of this. It was time for me to fight for my own place in the world. I would prove to everyone that I wasn't to be messed with, no matter what.

I have to say I was surprised at her reaction to finding herself alive and well. I expected some kind of lashing out, but she didn't react how I expected her to at all.

Now we were stuck playing her game of cat and mouse, trying to play our poker hand blind. We were doing okay, until she knocked our entire hand down for her to see. All bets are off, all the cards on the table, and our relationship on the line.

Yeah, we screwed up big time, and I wasn't sure if there was any coming back from this one. We wouldn't stop fighting for our girl though. She was our reason for living, for fighting our uphill battle. I wasn't losing that, no matter what.

You can run, little fox, but you can't hide.
