Desmond!

"I'm inlove with you Desmond"she mutters and my heart bursts. Excitement, joy and a ton of other emotions flush through me.

"C. Come again? "I question as I'm not sure i heard right.

"I'm.. I'm.. I'm inlove with you Desmond. "She repeats and I pull her into a hug. These are words I've been dying to hear but all the same never knew I'd been .

Then it hits me. ×what are you doing Desmond!? If you give into this,you could be the reason Deborah would have to loose her life!

I quickly pull away from her.

"I'm... I'm sorry but.. I don't think we should do this. We.. We can't be more than mates. " I reply as I stare into her face and instantly the light of hope in her eyes vanish.

Her jaw drops and she stares at me like I just stabbed her in the stomach.

"Deborah... "I make to speak as i try to grab her arm but she yanks it out of my reach.

Pain is written all over her and I feel the sides of my eyes sting.
