I can readily admit I’ve never been good at goodbyes. I left Maddy in the woods during the war, for example, running toward what I was sure was death at the hands of my own mate or to throw myself between him and my brother.
I stabbed my brother in the chest and put him into a magically induced coma rather than tell him I was thinking about leaving and crossing the veil.
And then I ruined his fancy party by having Ryatt create a Goddess-damned portal in the middle of my family’s throne room.
Even faced with being separated from Ryatt by war, I chose to ignore his very valid points about how dangerous King Kane was and fought with him instead of just saying goodbye.
I brought Ryatt here and put my whole family through the wringer instead of letting him die because I couldn’t,
