Chapter 54
Maybe I was being a fool.
I had trusted too many of the wrong people, and I didn’t know who to trust anymore. But the sick thing was, despite everything, I still wanted to trust Apollo. I still wanted what we had to be real. Gable had made me feel things that I never had before. He had treated me like a woman instead of some young, breakable girl.
And he had been my first lover.
But Apollo was the first man to ever lover me. The first person to look at me and want me for everything that I was. Baggage and all. He didn’t care that I was an orphan, or that I was a lost Princess.
He loved me for me. And the world had been trying to push us together for some time now. It seemed futile, to try to fight it anymore. All fighting had done had led to more death and destruction.
