Her True Feelings
[Moyra’s POV]
"What?" I gasped, unsure of whether or not I heard Eli correctly. "Repeat that please."
Instead of responding, Eli pressed his forehead gently against mine and wrapped his arms around me.
"I’m not accusing you." He said slowly. "But I do have reason to believe you still care, and I don’t want you to feel like you have to settle for me if I’m not where your heart truly lies."
Each word that left Eli’s mouth was like a dagger stabbing into my heart. I did care for him. I wasn’t lying or trying to settle. However, as soon as Armon was even mentioned, I could feel something stirring. Did this mean that what that voice said was true?
"I…" I began, but stopped as I tried to come up with the proper words for how I felt. "I’m not sure." I finally sighed. "I’ve not gotten the chance to really ever delve."
"Mmm."
