Zane's heart was in disarray. He didn't like the attraction he was feeling for her. He had the impression that he was cheating on Eleanor. He was in the same predicament he had been in when Eleanor first appeared in front of him. The guilt he was feeling at the time was not as intense as it is now. His attraction to Eleanor was much stronger than the guilt of cheating on Ruby. That was why he had always gone looking for Eleanor.
However, his attraction to Kiera was strong too. Yet, he couldn't deceive Eleanor, who saved him and hurt herself. He didn't know if she was still alive, but he wouldn't want another woman in his life besides her.
Despite his attraction to Kiera, a strong aversion arose in his mind. He felt as if fate had played a cruel joke on him. He refused to accept this bond. His heart beat only for Eleanor, and it belonged to her alone. Nobody could get into his heart.
