My Love Forever (The Night Movers Vampire Series Book 1) by Helen Bright Page A

the years to get rid of it, but she hadn’t had much success until recently, and apparently Nik was telling her that she should stop losing weight and exercising because she was getting rid of all those curves he likes.” “Oh my god, Nik was so out of order, what did Gina do?” “Well to be honest she let rip about all she hated about him which apparently was a lot because she went on forever about him being a disgusting man whore who objectified women, loved himself more than others, threw his dirty clothes on the floor, unlike me and Josh who put them in baskets by the way, and that he told stupid jokes which people didn’t laugh at any more.” “What did Nik say to all that,” asked Julia.
    “He didn’t say anything, he just grabbed her and kissed her in a full on Snog.” “What did Gina do when he kissed her? I thought you said she was married?” “She didn’t do anything other than kiss him back at first, but then she broke off the kiss and backed away. Then Nik said she should leave her husband and live with him, that he knew they would be good together and that her kids were older now so she didn’t have to stay for them anymore.  Then Gina just burst into tears and ran over to the other building. I followed her, not wanting to see her upset and that’s when I heard her telling Maggie what had happened. She said that she knew Steve (her husband) didn’t love her and that she hadn’t loved him for years, but if she left him now she would be admitting that all she’s worked so hard for over the years had been for nothing and that she was worried about what it would do to her children and her mum. She also said the only way that she would be with someone else would be for love, and that she didn’t think that Nik was capable of it.” “Do you think she’s right,” Julia asked hesitantly.
    “Well you know Nik and how he is, but I’ve got to be honest Julia he was really shook up for a while, like he was lost or something and not himself. He said he knew I had heard everything and thought that I was about to warn him to keep away from the staff. But I didn’t, I just asked him if he loved her. He said he had loved her for many years now, so I asked him if she knew and he said she must do. So I just said that maybe he needed to prove it to her, and that she was right his jokes were stupid.”
    “I hope whatever she decides to do she finds happiness,” said Julia as she began stroking my chest hair.
    “I hope so too,” I replied looking into her eyes. “There is another strong woman in my life Julia and that’s you.”
    “Me,” she said disbelievingly. “Why me, I’m not strong?” “Well I think you are. They way you demanded to see Megan even when the staff at the hospital told you no. The way you dealt with organising the funeral even when you were in so much physical pain.” “That wasn’t all me though was It Alex, you helped me get Megan in the hospital and both my parents and in laws helped with the funeral.” “Do you think it makes you less of a strong person to admit you needed help and to except the help that’s offered? I sometimes think that has to be harder than doing things yourself.” “Yeah well I wasn’t strong enough to stick it out in a loveless marriage like Gina has Alex, so you are definitely wrong on that score.” “Gina only stayed to begin with for the sake of her children, and although I am not condoning this as always the right action to take, I can see the strength someone would have to possess to make this kind of sacrifice. If Megan had lived would you have stayed with Gavin for her sake even if you were unhappy?” “Yes. I would.” She sighed looking down at her hands.
    “I think always the right course of action is for someone to leave and not put up with any bullshit, no one should, male or female. But it isn’t easy for a woman because she has the desire to please and make things right for everyone. It’s deeply embedded into her
