Chapter 31

• My eyes widened in shock, jaw-dropping as the reality of the situation dawned on me. My torturer, the one that has brought nothing but pain and misery with himself from the very second he stepped into my life. The one I was ready to dedicate my whole life to ending, was my mate. Everything suddenly felt too much and I was staggering backwards as I had nothing to hold my weight coupled with the weight of the realization.
• My back hit the wall and I was now practically wheezing as I struggled to get air into my lungs. I continued to choke on nothing other than my own misery and the thought of what this could mean for me.
