Dark watched her from a far, his eyes following her pretty figure. Her hourglass frame made his head spin and his heart race. You may call his feelings lust, but he had known her for a long time. He knew every part of her. From her fiery spirit to her broken heart that longed for escape. He knew her. And yet he had lost her. He had chosen his father and put her to the side.
A mistake.
He missed her. More than he could ever explain. He wanted nothing more than to hold her close and never let her go.
He watched as she glided across the floor, hand in hand with another man. He clenched his teeth, his fist curled into a ball.
The woman suddenly locked eyes with him. Her anger clear in her striking amber gaze. She let the other man pull her in even closer. As close as Dark once held her himself. She let a kiss be shared. Simple and endearing. She did not look at Dark again. The kiss had a clear message. And it stung.
"You put me to the side like I meant nothing. So I found someone who makes me mean everything."
Dark turned away, knowing he had lost her forever.
