*Harper*
Pain radiated through my entire being, but in the end, that's what it had come down to. We weren't dating. He wasn't mine to try and keep from anyone else. I had this talk with myself before, it was hard to think of him with someone else. But he was right. Hildr bubbled to the surface with not-so-helpful advice.
'Close the door, Harper. Look at his face, feel his emotions. He regrets saying it, you don't understand the repercussions this will bring.' Hildr spoke to me like a mother to a daughter.
'If I back down now, he will never respect me.' And she pushed forward slamming the door shut and walking me over to him. I struggled for control and she pushed me aside softly.
'You will thank me.' I wanted to scream and stop my feet, this was my choice to make.
