Carlos had come two years later. He was also found in an Orphanage but in Bolivia. His parents had been killed in a firefight that had erupted in the ...ittle village where he lived, close to the Colombian border. The local drug dealers had defended their product against intruding Colombian gangs.Carlos was thirteen when he first put his feet on US soil. In the beginning, the two children didn’t talk or play together. Carlos being one year older began to bully Laila but after Tommy and Gemma sat. Then Nicola called me and told me that as a reward for my efforts the girls were getting together and would like me to be there. I was excited but puzzled but all was revealed when I arrived. Young Gemma greeted me effusively, she was very grateful and delighting in her young motherhood. She took me upstairs and I expected to see the baby but instead she offered me her lovely breast. I didn't need much encouraging. Her warm sweet milk squirted into my mouth as she let it down and I fed greedily. Fewer actually go through with it thankfully. * Linden Howard had long, dark years of bad luck—some of the worst. As a child, his drug-addicted mother just about beat him half to death, before whacking herself at the age of thirty-four. Little boy Linden awoke one morning to relieve himself as usual, but instead found his mother submerged in a bloody tub of water. She’d slit both wrists and simply closed her eyes, allowing the gentle waters to wash her forever into the Dark place. Her blood. She soon found out when he led her to a little wooded area and there was a cozy cottage situated there that he had the key to. Seth led Jane into the cottage and once inside, he locked the front door and before she could do anything, he took her into his arms and began kissing her and pulling her close to himself in a very strong sexually overwhelming embrace. Jane almost felt like she was fighting for air; the kiss was so erotic and so powerfully sensual that it felt like the kinds of kisses.
