Consumed by Deception

Jake

My only mission was to earn back Aspen’s trust.

In helping her, I lead her down a track neither of us ever expected.

I just hope she remembers not to kill the messenger.  Me.

Aspen

Jake is persistent.  A trait that comes in handy when

helping me to uncover the motives behind the kidnapping.

How can the person who has become my only savior

be not a thing like he seems?
