Chapter 161 Do It For Yourself

• ADELINE’S POV
• Colton drops to his knees in front of me and I widen my eyes in surprise as I look at him below me. I don’t know what to do or how to react to this gesture so I just stare at him. I know he must have a lot to say and I know he is basking in self-hate and self-guilt. He has been basking in those two things ever since he got involved with Veronica, that I am sure of. I wish I could tell hm that it wasn’t his fault but that would be a lie because so matter how much we try to twist it, he still kidnapped me and he still brought me to erotica.
• The only difference is that I don’t hate him anymore for it. If there is one thing I have learned to do, it’s forgive. Besides how could I hate him, how could I despise o loathe him when it is because of me that his sister was put in danger. When I met Colton, all I saw was a man I hated with my whole heart. I couldn’t stand the sight of him. I wanted him dead but as I lived in erotica with him and as I got to know him, I realized that he was more than what met the eye. I learned about the hold that Veronica had on him and I saw the kindness he showed me and my heart ached for him.
