Kennedy's Redemption (The Protectors 3)

In the last few months so much has changed for me. I was lost and alone. Broken. I didn’t think I’d want to come home, let alone have a relationship with not one but two men. Now I’m home. I’m happier than I’ve ever been.

It’s been one year since I was taken and tortured. I live with the knowledge every day that I’m changed but feel like a better person now than I ever was. I used to think what happened to me was the most horrible thing in the world, but since meeting Creed and Linc and knowing their love for me and mine for them, I’ve got a new purpose in my life.

Helping others just like me.

When I started drawing to help alleviate my pain, it was just for me. I’ve since shared every drawing with my family, explaining what I was feeling in each one. They needed to understand. While it wasn’t easy for Momma to hear of the things I went through, she’s become my biggest champion. My own personal cheering team. She always was, but it feels different now. Like she’s amazed at what I went through and was able to be better for it. I hope I can continue to make her proud.

Since I’ve moved in with Linc and Creed (Like they gave me a choice!), they’ve remodeled the small barn out back for me. Turned it into the most fantastic art studio I have ever seen. I swear these men amaze me more and more each day.

I’ve opened an art workshop for abuse victims. I get all types of people coming in each week to relax and work through their feelings. Emily does amazing work with graphics and teaching new techniques to everyone on the tablets. Keeley’s now working on becoming a counselor. She started taking classes not too long ago. Turns out she aced her GED exams while I was gone. Said she needed to keep her mind occupied and what better way to do it. I’m so proud of her!

She had the baby just a few weeks ago! A sweet little boy they named Axel. He’s just adorable, and Keeley is such a perfect mother. My brothers are worry warts, though. They won’t let her do anything until the doctor clears her. I think she’s going crazy.

Emily, Dane, and Coop are getting married in two months. She’s asked Keels and me to stand up for her. She glows with happiness nowadays, and so do her men so I understand.

My men? Well, they’re amazing. They bought up the land the cabin was on when it went up for auction two months ago. They’re working to have it turned into an animal sanctuary. They told me something good should come of it. I wholeheartedly agree.

It took me a long time to understand I didn’t deserve what was done to me. That it wasn’t anyone’s fault but my captors. Some days I doubt that, but it doesn’t take long for my men to reel me in. They take such wonderful care of me, never letting my doubts sit in my mind for long before they give me hell.

I’ve experienced so much with them in the last year that even before the trauma, I never dreamed would happen. They treat me like a queen. It took us all a little while to grow used to living together but since then things have been almost magical. There're times where I think we’re too happy, and that something’s going to come crashing down and ruin it all. I try not to let it get me down, but I know I can always talk to them when the fear pops up.

They’ve gone to work with Nate and Ty at Maxwell Secures. They wanted out of the danger of being spies (or so they say), but they needed to do something. I think they like it. Sometimes they still seem bored, though.

That’ll change in about eight months. ;)

Strength and sunshine,

Kennedy Black (

P.S I almost forgot! I heard from Deedee yesterday! She’s coming to visit and says she has a surprise!
