Capítulo 38: Chapter 38

FABIEN 

When we're alone, she speaks first.

"There's something I'd like to say..."

"You'll get your chance, I promise. But first, I need you to know I wasn't lying to you about what'd happen if you stay. You know I have to protect my family. I can't let outsiders harm these people. Even you."

Lola reaches out, and I can't bring myself to step away. Her fingers brush across my chest, seeking out my skin beneath my shirt. The familiar electricity is still there when we touch. If anything, it's even more powerful.A part of me cries out to have more. More of the pleasure only she can give me. And more of the power.

"I'd never hurt this family, Fabien. I want you to know that. I want you to know I love you. I made a mistake and trusted the wrong people, and the people I thought were the bad guys turned out not to be so bad. The people I thought were the good guys turned out to be pretty shitty.
