Mason's Misery

She shouldn't even be alive. And now she could be mine.
A decade ago, the Bandits took everything from Rachel Reid. Her dignity. Her passion. Her soul. The horrible events drove us all with rage, but they drove her to disappear. We never saw her for years. We even thought she might be dead. But now, rumors are spreading. She's been seen. Somehow, she's looking stronger, more beautiful, and more determined than ever. I shouldn't be feeling this way about her. She was once Brock's. I'm too old. She's been through too much. But looking at Rachel has made me feel something I thought I'd never feel again. And when she starts talking to me, it gets only worse. For better or for worse, she and I are going to find out just how we really feel about each other.
