She was the key of the shackles that caged me to a burned ground. She was more important than they could have fathomed.“Fuck… no…” A weak gasp liberated from my lips, losing my breaths. Pushing my hair behind, a screen of tears forming in my wide eyes as my back pressed against the wall. My lips were quivering, losing my strength.“Sir–” Elijah held his hand out to hold me but I put my hands up in the air, refusing his support, knowing I would kill him in a spur of wrath and anguish.I remained in my place until the staff came to shift Kristine to another room for the D&C.
