This warning is here for a reason.
This book is a work of fiction containing explicit, graphic, and violent material.

Communication is key and I do not believe anything should be swept under the rug - sexuality, gender orientation, race, age, or religion. If I help stir the cauldron of conversation and provide an escape for a few hours, I have done my job.
Play hard and have fun.
Be good and love one another.
Enjoy the ride!
Without further ado, here we go…
Every Minute I Love You
is the third book in
a Tomb of Ashen Tears.
This will be an intense piece for some.
Don’t be afraid to take an emotional breather.
Enjoy it!

EMILY is for those scraping my ass up after the plummet.
You are the reason I do this.
You are the reason every word counts.
You are the reason Sal continues to breathe.
…and you are the reason I do it again and again.
And to the stranger, who out of the blue messaged,
telling me get up off the fucking ground and not quit…
Thank you, Nikki.
You caught me.
And this one is yours.

Ms. Samuels Notes
Kailee Books
I
Prelude to a Cage
A crumpled note
hot cement culverts on the playground
sharing and talking and fighting
with licks of ice cream
swapped spit all summer long
I, the pest; you, the responsible
hold your hand
drink my water
look both ways
use my words
with everything
splashes on canvas
you say I’m bright like the sun
with my clay-caked fingers
you say keep going with this
violence soaks in your soul
paling the boy I love
flee and hide away
dreaming of peaceful days
split in half
two sides of you
one never seen
you captured my craving
with nothing
she stole your heart
that should be mine
she has the side of you
I long to meet
on your stained sheets
laying in your cum
with your promise on my finger
I wait to take your name
I wait to be yours.
I wait to be in his cage.

Prayers of a Sinner
Wearing the dark blue tailored suit with a black trench coat, I fold the note from Emily and tuck it inside of my jacket pocket. Walking from the parking lot, I feel like I’m morphing into the skewed version of the man Luca Raniero was—classic, old mafia.
Beneath the layers, my inked skin shrouds the darkness of my soul where the truth keeps my pure, hidden and safe. This is nothing more than a charade, a mask for the masses, but when I peel away the lies—the magic cross in my spirit craves the love of an interwoven girl.
The one true love of my life, Iris Amarie Nakamura Kettles, is as dynamic as the chocolate croissant we’ll meet over with hundreds of gauze-like layers, each with their own fantastical labyrinth. I long to pull the pieces apart, hold them up to the light for closer inspection, only to savor each one in the darkest of night.
I’ve kept the depth of my feelings—my emotions—trapped away. I've committed sins to protect her, and I’d do it again without blinking. I'd do it again without thinking. Guarding her is as natural as breathing.
I don’t think of Emily or the note.
I can’t because I’m in love with Iris.
And she knows.
The rain and snow mix pours from the sky as I open the massive wooden door to the off the beaten path Catholic Church.
The hinges creak announcing my intrusion, the holy sinner in God’s house. I’m about an hour outside of Boston, in a little suburb, where Father Philip Quinn offered to meet me.
