Liam: I had everything I could ever want. A perfect job, money, and family. Even with all of that, I still wasn’t happy. I still wanted more. I wanted a woman who I could trust, who I could love. A woman who made my blood burn. Then I meet her, battered and bruised, but so beautiful and sexy. I had to have her. Gwendolyn: I’ve been alone my entire life. I’ve grown used to the solitude, but still crave the affection and love that I see in others around me. I thought I could find that in my ex, but soon realize what a mistake that was. A mistake that nearly cost me my life.

But a teenage girl is missing, a kidnapper is on the loose, and all of this is reminding Sunshine why she left Del Sol in the first place.

I notice that the door is half-opened. I want Danielle and Lindsey to walk in and see the man they love lying naked over me - animalistic and so full passion. I doubt they even love him. They don’t love anyone but themselves. But it still brings me pleasure to think about them having to watch because they would know, once and for all, that they are rotten and unlovable and dead inside, and I’m full of life and love. That’s why this is happening now.

We’re facing each other, our knees practically touching, and I can feel his intense energy pulling me in like a charged up magnet. "I..." I say, softly. I lean into him - letting my breasts fall down in my dress, my cleavage at the perfect angle from his eye line. I want him to look down at them; I crave for him to desire me like I desire him right now. "Christian..." I whisper, seductively, as my lips are about to reach his.
