Destroy The Innocent

If Jericho Blackwood tells you the sky is blue, trust me, it's gray.
The man is a beautiful liar and believing him left me heartbroken, pregnant, depressed, pissed off, and shattered when the only real love he'd given me, our son, was brutally ripped from my arms.

Now, here he comes twenty-two years later with sugar on his tongue after a terrible accident steals away my sister and young niece.  He offers me comfort in his arms and I can't resist that magnetic pull back into his web of lies.

I know this man, inside and out, so why do I ache for him and will history repeat itself, and once again, will being in Jericho's arms destroy me?

I was born into a family of monsters who would lie, cheat and steal to get what they wanted.
I did all of the above and more to Salem after I told her I loved her.

Decades later, I have to convince Salem that I'm not the man I used to be, but how can I do that when there are still lies between us? I want to be honest, but there are some things she must never know.
