Everything is different. Learning the truth hasn’t loosened the chains. Do I run? Do I hide? No. I sit. I wait. Comply. No one seems to have figured out I’m not one of them. I’m still alone in the world. Well… I should be alone. Wanting him is wrong. We made the sacrifice for the greater good. I gave him to his purpose. Why do our bodies, our desires, our needs, keep forgetting that? Nothing ever stays the same. Play along. That’s what I’m supposed to do. Who knew it would flip the game on its head? I’m alone. Until I meet my prince. Now there’s a chance of getting out alive. A slim one. I’m not one of them, but I have to play by their rules. My prince’s rules are simple: tell no one. That means lying to my Heart… for another man. Will he ever forgive me? Warning: Contains explicit language and imagery. Suitable only for ages 18 and over.
