The Human Among Wolves
"I wanted to be honest so badly, I just didn't know how to survive the truth, You can hate me now for all you want ! But I did what I had to do ! And I am sorry ! "
"I don't hate you, Lily.".
"What?"
"I said I don't hate you."
He rubbed a hand over his face.
"I'm hurt, I'm angry, I feel like a fool….. ."
"But I don't hate you."
A painful relief spread through my chest yet I still felt a pang of guilt , This guilt in me was eating me so bad that I couldn’t even look at his eyes and not see how he looked at me when his hands slipped away from mine at the festival when the truth came out, if he hated me, walking away would be easier.
