Revenge Had Felt So Right


Just To Bring Her Back - A Tragedy, Of Sorts 

The ground was hard, his body was tense, and the air was stuck in his throat. Depression set in. It took him over; he relished in this state. The bars before him taunted his soul. The reason for his imprisonment flooded his mind. Her limp body in his arms with a bullet in her heart, the smile on that man’s face as Wade pulled the trigger; it was too much to handle. His heart broke again when he saw her face. Her long brown hair, her hazel eyes that could read his soul, the wedding ring that bound them together, the thoughts drew him to his knees. Wade Parker finally let it go. The strength he had been trying to hold on to crashed. He let salty tears pour down his face. What had he done? Revenge had felt so right. Now he was locked up like the bloody murderer he was.

There is this song called "Kiss It Better" by He Is We. It is a terribly sad song. Below you can listen to it with the lyrics. I suggest doing so. I was inspired to write a story based off of this song. 

It is a modern, romance, action & adventure kind of story. The gist of it is how a man loses his wife, but it was no accident. There was a reason for her death. A bullet to the heart took her from him and he is determined to find the owner of the finger that dared pull the trigger. He knows what he will do if he finds that man: kill him. Wade Parker seeks out the murderer of his wife, but in the end, can he finish the revenge he so looked for? Will his time in jail for the crime he commits be enough to bring her back? Just To Bring Her Back is a short story written by Margaret Sensenig and sub-written by Hannah Privitera (still in the making).

"What haunted his dreams the most was the smile on that man’s face as he died. As Wade pulled the trigger, that man smiled. He had been waiting for that day to come when Wade would avenge his lover."
