Love Was Never the Deal
Henry and I… never formally bonded.
But back then, foolish, naive, desperate to believe in so-called "love," I had let him sweet-talk me into handing over my token.
Damn that foolish version of myself!
Without it, I couldn't bond with Kane.
The realization hit me like a punch to the gut. I froze, throat tight, mind blank. Time stretched unnervingly, and for a long moment, I couldn't even speak.
Henry, that bastard.
My thoughts collided violently, tearing through my mind. The shock came too fast, too sudden—I could barely breathe. For a moment, I simply stood there, ears ringing, the world sealed off behind some invisible barrier.
