LOVE FOR SALE
"Mr. Grey's actions demonstrate a prolonged pattern of stalking, intimidation, surveillance, threats and deliberate attempts to isolate the victim from her family and support system."
I looked at Zane.
For years, he had called his obsession love. But sitting there, listening to the evidence, I finally understood the difference.
Love didn't make you afraid.
Love didn't trap you.
Love didn't punish you for choosing someone else.
Love didn't demand ownership.
That wasn't love.
It was obsession and obsession always came with a price.
During the break, I walked outside because I needed air.
Ambrose followed me.
"You okay?"
I nodded.
"I think so."
