“Don’t leave me.” His hoarse voice cracked. “Please.”
I took a step back. Maddox looked wounded, and my soul bled to see him hurt.
“Lila,” he breathed my name. “Please.”
I slowly shook my head. “Maddox.” It pained me to say his name. “You broke your promises.”
My feet took me another step back.
“No,” he pleaded. “Lila, no.”
I turned and walked away, leaving my broken heart at his feet.
