~Lily~
The second my eyes met Connor’s I knew I was finished. Like, game over, collect your things, thank you for playing, Lily, now prepare to die. f**k.
My whole body froze, but not just froze..no, it was worse than that. It was like every nerve inside me remembered who I belonged to, remembered who owned me, remembered who could break me with one look, and they all screamed at once.
I couldn’t breathe. Oh God, I couldn’t breathe. My lungs just… stopped. And the way he was looking at me? Not even looking, devouring.
Like he was already peeling back skin to see the bones of my betrayal. I wasn’t even doing anything! I didn’t touch Rafael, I didn’t kiss him, I didn’t even understand what he said in Spanish, but oh my God, Connor didn’t care. Connor never cares about “technicalities.”
