Chapter 1 Alex laid in bed his left arm resting across his chest his index finger tracing the shape of the chain link brand on his right side something he only did when he was tense.

Another Love: Lost an alternate ending by GeorgeAnderson after the original by RichardGerald. RichardGerald's "Another Love" (https://www.literotica.com/s/another-love-pt-01 ) is one of the more controversial stories on the site.

Your comments are always welcome. * Part One: Suspicion, Dis...
