His Love His Hate
Olivia shook her head violently, refusing to accept his words.
“He told me he’d be back.”
Her voice cracked.
“He promised me he’d come back.”
Tears began streaming down her face.
“He promised.”
She covered her mouth with both hands, but the sob that escaped her was impossible to contain.
Jordan moved toward her, but Olivia barely seemed aware of him.
“He can’t be dead,” she whispered. “He just can’t.”
Her knees weakened, and Jordan quickly caught her before she fell.
“Tell me you’re joking,” she pleaded, clutching his shirt. “Please, Jordan. Please tell me you’re joking.”
