My heart was crying.
I couldn't bear to look into Killian's eyes. I couldn't bring myself to meet Killian's gaze. The pain, anger, and betrayal reflected in his eyes tore at my very soul. I longed to explain everything, to confess that I was trapped in an impossible decision, faced with a choice where every path led to heartbreak.
If I chose my brother, I risked losing the only man I ever truly loved. If I chose him, the consequences for my brother would be unthinkable.
This was too difficult for me. How could I choose? How could I ever reveal to him that every smile, every whispered promise had been laced with lies?
