Chapter 423: Just Closure
GRAYSON
~
My primary mission was to escape that cell, get my sister before anyone noticed, and get the hell outta here without looking back. But I found myself sneaking into Emilia’s Suite. She wasn’t here and I just let myself observe everything she owns, anything that could get me some kind of closure I need.
That’s the only thing I came for... closure. But it seemed like I craved more the moment I wrapped my hand around her mouth and she kicked me hard in the balls. It felt like a part of me missing finally came to life and the heavy ache in my chest that had remained for a very long time was finally healed just by her body against mine and her lips kissing me hungrily.
God, I missed her. Everything. My balls still hurt from getting impaled by her boot but fuck me I can’t think of that right now, I just want her here right now. But my heart turned heavy when she aggressively pulled away from me and put me a few feet away from her.
"Emilia?"
"What’s happening?" she held her head. "Am I going crazy? All these memories, are they mine?" she circled her finger around her head like she was nuts.
"Yes," I said desperately and closed the distance between us but she took a step back and looked at me with tears-driven eyes. "At least not the crazy part"
"You left," she whispered. "That night and never came back"
"I know"
"How could you?!"
