  It is possible to be blinded by the light of another human being. Especially one you love. The seemingly happiest people are often hiding the darkest secrets. Smiling through pain many of us could not even fathom, let alone survive. All the while continuing to bring joy to the people around them, blissfully oblivious to the suffering of their loved one. 
  "The ignorant often argue, that if two people really were so connected, in any form of love, they would have noticed something was not right. 
  Well, I will tell you this much… While that is often not the case, a day hasn’t gone by that I haven’t tormented myself with those same gut-wrenching thoughts.” - Ryder 
  Joy Ride is a short story that takes place within the same world as the Saviors MC Series. It is a dark tale about friendship and revenge.
