HIS WORDS WERE FIRED & AIMED AT HER HEART —— a direct hit ! despite everything she had witnessed & seen the vice-president do, it did nothing to shake the romantic feelings she had for him. she was a fool for falling for his boyish charm, unwilling to notice the warning signs that presented themselves to her since day one. no, she was much too smitten & wrapped around the idea of loving
& being in love with someone that she became blind. now here he was, selfish creature trying to reclaim her love in his favor with a sick intent of hoping she could be the one to wash away his sins. the warrior knew that the right move would be to ignore the prince & simply move on
——
leave the haunting town of charming & focus on better pursuits. but as she carefully watched the pained expression that spread ‘cross his porcelain features, she couldn’t help but be attracted to his pull. there was so much in him that she felt was similar to her, specifically the sadness & misery they both shared in worn out eyes. mako wanted nothing more but to wrap her arms around him & forget everything that had severed their close relationship. the prince was so close to her ; faint scent of liquor & iron intoxicating her senses. a hesitant step is taken forward before him, but she would not kneel & concede to him blindly. not yet. not again.
“ YOU WERE SELFISH JAX. “ she replied softly. “ in not telling me what you do, you have basically ENTRAPPED me in the dangers of your world. i realize you wanted an opportunity to be happy, but —— this was not the right way to go about it. “ her countenance remains neutral, plump lips turned downwards as she sees the regret & want in his eyes. the want for her. “ you’ve pushed me away —— & i don’t know if there’s anything you can do to make me come back. i care about you but —— you really hurt me. “
