  It wasn’t the first time he hit me. The first time was just a little slap for being too flirtatious with one of the customers where I worked at the bar. But, look. I’m just going to confess this, and it’s going to sound really awful. Really sick. But if I’m being honest, the first time my boyfriend slapped me was kind of hot. Because it felt like he would fight for me. Fight for what was his.

  Hey Readers!

  I wouldn’t have been able to write it without the inspiration of the hit series JUSTIFIED. I’m indebted to that show and its creators for the cadence, mood and modern shoot-em-up cowboy vibe of this piece. To be clear, Colt is an original character with his own problems, but Raylan Givens would surely sympathize and understand such a kindred spirit.
