Cadence leaves an abusive boyfriend after years of abuse. She wants to find love, true love, can’t live without you love! Can she make it through the lust, lies, and betrayal? Follow her on her journey as she meets new people and loses people along the way. 'As I’m undressing I can still see marks on my body. They don’t stand out like they used to. In fact if you didn’t know they were there you would probably wouldn’t even notice them. After I turned to water to the shower on as hot as possible without burning my skin. I step into the shower and cry. I wasn’t crying over Trevor anymore. These tears were for me. For the little girl who lost her dad, for the teenager who lost her mom, and for the adult who lost herself. It felt like the water was washing all the sadness off me because after 15 minutes of crying, it stopped. The sadness was gone. I felt something in me that reminds me of the person I used to be. 'Looking at Trevor standing there with his brown eyes staring at me so hard I can feel the anger coming out of them. The eyes that I once loved to look into and that made me feel so safe are now the eyes that bring me nothing but pain. That tanned sexy body of his used to make me weak in my knees now makes me wish I could run.'You need to stop crying! I’m so sick of you always fucking crying!' Trevor screamed in my face.'I wouldn’t cry if you would stop being such an asshole all the time!' I hissed back with tear stained cheeks.'What the fuck did you say to me?' I saw his fists clench. But there’s no way I’m backing down!'I said to stop being an asshole!' I screamed while wiping the tears from my face.What happened next took me by surprise. He hit me. That bastard fucking hit me! It wasn’t a slap across the face. No, it was a full on punch to my stomach. Not once, not twice, but three fucking times. I tried my best to stand my ground but the pain was so much it made me black out. I woke up on the ground with him standing over me smoking. I got myself to my feet and went running to the bathroom. As I looked at myself in the mirror I could see the marks showing up already. I don’t know what made him turn into this person. How could he do this to me after 2 1/2 years together? You’re wondering why if he is doing this to me and I’m so unhappy, why am I still with him? Well for you to understand I’m going to have to take you back to 3 1/2 years ago when we first met. I was about to turn 20 and standing on the very same beach where I had so many happy memories with my mom.
