NATH
I sit on the bed after Winter leaves, and let my thoughts spiral.
How long can I keep this up?
At first, I told myself it wasn't my place to reveal the truth. But the deeper we get into this game, the more I see how much she trusts me. She looks at me like I'm her anchor. And yet… I know that if I keep silent, one day she'll feel betrayed. She'll think I used her.
The problem is...I'm starting to want her. Every time she teases me, every time she leans too close, it chips away at my control. If she keeps this up, it's only a matter of time before I break. Before I give in. And before that happens, maybe she should know the truth.
But then I imagine the fallout. Would she forgive me? Or would she see me as just another man taking advantage of her?
