Chapter 98

PARIS'S POV

"Every time I think your behavior can't get any worse, every time I believe that you might become a better version of yourself, you make me realize how wrong I am. You give me a reason to question my sanity. What sort of a person are you?"

"the kind of person you've refused to be. Wise. You want me to consider Ember as my daughter-in-law, and I simply cannot. I have never been able to, and I refuse to start now. Apologies if you're unable to live with that."

"You aren't just irredeemable. You're also shameless with it." I said angrily and turned away from her without another word.

I walked back to the prison grounds and looked at the infirmary. How was it even possible that all of this was happening? It was completely unheard of, but regardless of that, the possibility was right there with me, giving me reasons for worry. I was a strong man, at least I liked to see myself as one. But all of this made me feel very unsafe.
