LOGINGEORGINA'S POV, “I don't want to hurt anyone else. I don't want to keep living like this,” he said, his voice softening with that raw honesty that always got under my skin. It pulled at the threads of what we used to be, before I betrayed him and convinced the entire kingdom, including him and hi
GEORGINA'S POV, “It means maybe we shouldn't be doing this at all,” he said, with a serious expression on his face. And for a second I thought I misheard him. There was no way he would be talking like that for long. He grew up in luxury, with servants, and an endless flow of money to fulfil all
