Rewriting Fate I’ll Never Love You Again
“Boyfriend. Please. Don’t act like you’re above it all. You had a crush on me for what—fifteen years? And now you’re what, suddenly over me because he’s a better kisser? A better fuck?”

So I slapped him. Hard.
The crack echoed through the alley, and for a moment, Cassian froze.
Then, disturbingly, he smiled.
“If you break up with him, I’ll agree to be with you,” he said, almost gleeful. “I’ll even marry you. Isn’t that what you always wanted?”
I held up my hand, flashing the ruby ring that glinted under the alley light.
