"King, why don't you focus your attention on Nan instead? She has no negative history with your family, and you like her. In some ways, she's been more of a wife to you than I have."
"I broke it off with Nan last night before I went to the bar. She'll be reassigned to another division at Heavenly as well. You don't have to see her again."
Well, that shut me up. I didn't expect that. The last I remembered, King wanted to keep seeing her while living with me. For the first time, I thought maybe King was serious. Now what?
Did it change anything? No, not really. I still didn't trust him. I was angry not only about the recent torture, and yeah, I saw it as torture, but the cumulation of everything that had happened since I'd married King. No matter what King did to redeem himself, I didn't think I would ever get over it.
