Switched Bride True Luna novel Chapter 137

And to think that she cited my particular interest in revenge. To get back at those who have wronged me. I simply cannot believe that she would think that she would become one of my victims in my plans of revenge.

Even if she did betrayed me like this, I don’t think I could bring myself to put her in harms way like that.

I stand from the bed and make my way to the door, opening it up and walking down the darkened hallway. I enter the shared living space and look around.

There is not a soul to be seen from in the space. The Deltas have gone home for the night, seeing how I am here to keep an eye on Emily. Even then, it feels like a ghost town in my own home.

Just as I turned the corner, wishing to get some fresh air from the balcony, I noticed her body out in the dark of the night. She stands on the balcony that overlooks my land, a cup of tea, sat beside her on the cement railing.

I pause, unsure of what to do or say to her if she is to find out that I’m sitting here watching her. My original plan of needing air has been abandoned, my body in mind finding comfort and knowing that emily has not left or made a chance to escape from my home, to get back the freedom that she’s so desperately wishes to have.

I do not wish to disturb her either. She probably wants time on her own, to remain as far away from me as possible. I don’t blame her for feeling that way. I would be in the same boat as her if I were in her shoes.

As I sit here and watch her, I realize just how much love I have for her.

I remember the way that I used to look forward to seeing her first thing in the morning. I love the way. She always greets me with a small smile, a slight head not as she takes her spot at the counter.

Emilie has made her way inside of my home, leaving permanent marks of her existence behind in the walls and in the mugs and in the way she has helped me move on from my failed relationship with her stepsister.

I do not know if she feels the same way about me, though. I unfortunately do not know what lies in that head of her, the way she thinks and perceives the world. She most likely hates me for what I have done to her. I have stripped her of all freedom and control that she wants had her hands on her life.

If only I had the chance to explain myself, to show her the reasons as to why this is a good move for the two of us to make. If I am not going to be the one who is there to protect her from men like Michael and people like Chloe, then she needs somebody there to advocate for her and protect her from the villains in the world.

Simply looking at her, I know that the distance has lengthened between us. I know that there is no way that I will be able to earn back that trust I want built with her. I’m going to have to cross Nomansland once again in order to make my way back into her heart in good graces.
