5 He looked a few years older than me .
I called him Hunt .
He didnt have any ID , nothing at all .
He was a blank slate , like someone had wiped him clean on purpose .
I took him to the police .
Called around to the local departments .
Nothing .
It wasnt a surprise .
We lived in the sticks .
The people in charge didnt give a damn .
Why would they try and help someone they didnt know .
They told us to wait for a call .
We waited a year .
The dumbass moved into my house .
I had my reasons .
My mom was sick and kept getting confused .
Later , in college , I learned it was Alzheimers .
No cure .
I was taking care of my mom , studying , and working part time .
With Hunter around , at least I didnt have to work .
He was young and strong , so he could handle some physical labor .

But he was weird .
For a big guy , he was super delicate .
At first , he couldnt do anything right .
Clumsy as hell , always complaining .
I was getting fed up .
.
If you dont pull your weight , Im kicking you out .
Hunter freaked out .
Sierra , you cant leave me .
Im your husband .
Oh , yeah , I lied and told him that eating our food meant he had to marry me .
It was a white lie .
That idiot was way too attractive , attracting a bunch of old biddies trying to marry me off to their grandkids .
That was the only way to shut them up .
< Poor people marry young .
Where I grew up , getting engaged in your teens was normal .
When I said I was going to kick him out , Hunter looked lost .
He had this whole playboy thing going on , but he looked at me like a scared puppy .
After that , Hunter worked his ass off , finally earning his keep .
Then he started showing his other side .
One time , I got my period , and didnt realize L Id bled through my pants .

Walking out of school , the guys started laughing at me .
Hunter was waiting for me to walk home .
Those guys said , Look at Willow Sawyers boyfriend , he ruined her ass and now shes bleeding .
Hunter heard them , and he charged those guys and beat them to the ground .
He hit hard , aiming for the kill , like a wild animal .
I didnt even recognize him .
I grabbed his arm .
Hunt ! Stop it ! He froze , letting me pull him away .
If Willow says stop , I stop.
The guys were covered in bruises , and their parents came after us , demanding medical bills .
4 Money that we did not have .
That night , Hunter seemed to know he messed up .
He sat in the corner of the room , looking miserable .
When I went to talk to him , I saw tears running down his face .
Im sorry , Sierra .
I know I messed up .
I wont cause any more trouble .
Dont … dont leave me .
He cried like a puppy .
My heart melted .
Okay , you have to be good .

I only want a husband who listens to me .
Okay .
The next day , Hunter came home with a bunch of money .
2 < He sold his watch .
When I found him , he was wearing this expensive looking watch .
I freaked out .
Why would you sell that ? You need that watch to find your family .
He smiled .
Youre my family .
I dont need to go anywhere .
Im staying with you .
That dumbass probably got ripped off .
That watch had to be worth way more than that .
But Hunter didnt care .
He was good , only listening to me .
After that , those guys had terrible luck .
Tacks in their shoes , bugs in their clothes , rocks in their rice .
Their tires kept getting slashed , and one fell into the river .
What a coincidence .
I looked at Hunter .
He just smiled back .
