~ NYSSA
I rolled my eyes at Henry. "Really? That's the best you have? How old do you think I am? Five?"
I walked over to him, chin straight and hands crossed over my chest.
"I have no interest in reading his journal. I know he's done some bad things, but we all have. Even you. What's your end game here? What do you want?"
"You," he said simply reaching out for me but I stepped back and out of his reach.
"Let it go Henry," I said coldly. "I am not yours, not anymore."
Henry scoffed. "You will always be mine. I was your first mate."
"And yet you rejected me. I don't need you anymore, I have-"
"Who do you have, Nyssa? Him?" He laughed humorlessly. "You don't even know who he is."
Rowan growled, a low warning sound. "Shut the fuck up!"
"Why?" Henry shot back. "Tell her what you're hiding, Rowan, let's see if she still loves you after."
I turned to my mate, brows knitted in confusion but before I could speak, Rowan had rushed over to my side.
