Chapter VII
I SPENT A FULL WEEK with Anthony after the Louis incident. Usually, I’d need to be alone after a few days with him, but this time I needed to feel connected to someone. I felt guilty, mostly for my thoughts turning to Seth too often. Anthony deserved better. Well, the current Anthony did… And the past didn’t matter anymore, did it? So I stayed and we spent most of our time together, doing our best to enjoy the moment, embrace what we had, stunted as it was. I cared about Anthony. More than I would’ve thought possible after everything that had happened with us, with Louis, with Seth. I thought if he gave me enough time, we’d get to a place where we were both happy together.
Until we reached that place, my blood bonding skills helped us stay close without me getting overwhelmed
