*Gray*
*Moments after Gray’s escape*
Hope flowed through every vein in my body as I ran along. The wind rushed through my hair as I hurried with the most beautiful, kind woman on this planet resting in my arms.
It’d been years.
There had been so many years of unrequited love, and so much training as a Drogomor warrior. I’d done this pack well and had my heart in it. I always figured I needed to get over Lorelei.
What I did to her was horrible. I deserved every moment of wary looks toward me after how I treated her.
My heart was torn to pieces when I saw just how wonderful she was. When we spoke at that party, something in me clicked.
I realized right then I needed to say goodbye to someone I truly felt a connection to for the first time in my life, but I couldn’t be selfish like my father.
I couldn’t.
Saying goodbye to her, and being as horrible and mean as possible, meant she wouldn’t continue to go after me or want to stay in Silver Fang.
