ITHRA
I can’t expect the pain I felt watching Zadok walk away from me.
I remember the urge that boiled within me, begging that I run after him, apologise to him, and tell him I never saw him as an enemy. Neither did I want to be his enemy.
I wanted to hold him by his leg and tell him just how much of a coward I was to get clean with him after holding back the truth from the beginning. I needed him to know I was ready to give up the ghost Orchid so he could find his mate if I could be in his good books.
From the moment he came back for me at the dragon’s cave, I fell hook, line and sinker in love with him. I was ready to carry this love I have to the grave if it meant I got to see him happy with his mate.
However, it was too late. I couldn’t say that because it would be no use. I had broken Zadok’s trust so foolishly and damned myself to a life of perpetual pain, agony and sorrow - A life I was born to live.
