A Human Heart

Victoria's POV

I was such a coward for running away from Owen. But I didn't want my parents and Zane to know I felt something towards him. I locked myself and didn't open my bedroom door, no matter how my parents knocked and called my name.

I was on my bed for the rest of the day, curling under the covers. I wanted to give Oliver the justice he deserves, but how can I avoid Owen in the process? I didn't expect him to follow me here at Oliver's place.

How did he even know about Oliver's house? He came alone, and I gave him credit for being so brave. I don't know how long I can fight my strong attraction toward him.

Every time I looked at him, I only wanted one thing, to be in his arms again. I knew I should never have felt this way toward anyone because I just lost my mate.
