They didn’t know anything about me, didn’t know who I was, didn’t know all the bad things I’d done.
They were just following me, my writing.
It made my heart beat.
It was as though for the first time in my life, I wasn’t hiding.

Dear Atlas, please forgive me. You thought I wouldn’t notice when you dropped the world and used your broken sky for stepping-stones into heaven. You thought I wouldn’t see the blood on your feet, as if my feet haven’t bled every day from my broken glass slippers.
I’m stealing it.
Let me be Atlas for a while.

West gripped my chin. “You might be with me because of Grayson, but you’re anyone’s game now, Story.”
“Well, you’ve always had a problem with listening, West,” I gritted.
His eyes darkened. “You didn’t give me a proper chance. You loved me once. You can love me again.”
I yanked my chin away, disbelief leaving me in a stuttering breath. “I’ll never forgive you.”
He laughed like he knew something about me I didn’t. “You forgave him.”
It was different.
Wasn’t it?
I bit my lower lip until the pain was all I could feel.
He placed his palm on my thigh and I jerked my leg to get him off, but he gripped me tighter. His eyes dropped to my neck, to the fresh bite Grayson had left, and his grip turned bruising.
“If he touches you, if you so much as kiss him, I get everything.” He took my chin between his bruising fingers. “I’m a jealous master, Angel, and I’m done sharing you. I look forward to earning your forgiveness. Or your obedience. Whichever comes first.”

What’s next
Hi!!
*chuckles nervously*
So, I honestly spent over a month on the last chapters of Forbidden Fate, seeing if I could finish this love story in a way that did Story and Gray justice. Guys, I’m emotionally exhausted. Ripped apart. Their love has taken so much from me.
But it just couldn’t be done.
