The Boy Who Has No Belief (Soulless Book 7)
Page 28
She shook her head. “I love you…”
I didn’t say it back.
“We’re meant to be together, Derek. Don’t do this. Don’t hurt me like this.”
I’d been hurt more than she would ever possibly understand. “I’m sorry, Emerson.”
“Please…”
I turned away and kept walking, ignoring the sound of her tears as they echoed in the stairway. I could hear them every time I dropped a floor, heard them when I was halfway to the bottom, heard them even when I finally reached the door on the ground floor.
When I was on the sidewalk in the cold air, I could still hear them.
Like an echo that wouldn’t fade.

Why did I ever think Emerson and I were a good idea?
She's my assistant, so I have to see her everyday. We get along, for the most part, but there's subtle hostility between us both.
Being on my own is better. It makes far more sense.
Until something terrible happens, something I didn't see coming, and it's those moments of tragedy that change you forever.
I've changed…and I can never go back.
