Chương 29: The Big Why

The betrayal had cut deep, leaving scars that still lingered, despite the passage of time. David cursed himself for allowing his desires to overpower his better judgment, for succumbing to the temptation of her lips.

Yet, even as he wrestled with his anger and resentment, another part of him yearned for her, craved her presence like a parched man in the desert. It was a battle between his desire for revenge and the longing of his heart, a battle that raged on within him with no clear winner in sight.

In the end, David made a decision. He couldn't afford to let his emotions dictate his actions, not when there was so much at stake. He couldn't give in to the desires of his heart, no matter how tempting they may be. It was a tricky path to navigate, but he was determined to stay true to his resolve, even if it meant denying himself the one thing he truly wanted.
