I shook my head. “You read it.”
“Are you sure?”
“I’ve gone through so much already. Another blow couldn’t possibly worsen the damage.”
Dustin breathed in and out slowly as he unfolded the paper. He started to read.
My Haley,
Since you’re reading this letter, I guess our plans of a wonderful future together have been postponed. I’m probably in prison now for what I did to those prostitutes. Am I sorry? No. Everything I did, I did out of love for you. I will confess everything. They can throw me in prison, but I’m far smarter than the law. I will find a way out. I refuse to live my life without you, Haley.
I sent you here, to my childhood home, so you can see the lengths to which I’m prepared to go in order to get you back.
As you wait for me, wear my mother’s necklace as a reminder that our love will never end. Once I’m out of prison, I’ll find you and we will start a wonderful new life. Wherever you are, I will find you. The marriage vows we made to each other are unbreakable.
Till death do us part, my wife.
Yours forever,
Jude
Dustin dropped the letter to the floor and held me. “I guess he never considered the possibility that he might die. His sick mind must have also made him believe he was immortal. It’s almost as if he had a multiple personality disorder.” He smoothed my hair. “I’m glad he’s dead and can’t hurt you anymore.”
I pulled back from Dustin and looked him in the eyes. “Jude is immortal. He might be dead physically, but even from the grave he will continue to torment me. But I’ll find a way to live through it.” I moved forward and allowed Dustin to kiss me softly on the lips.
I wasn’t kidding myself. There were still a lot of hurdles to jump over before I could start again, but as long as I didn’t have to live in fear of Jude, I would find a way.
