Back then, sweetheart—barely recovered from the brutal kidnapping that had left him disfigured and suffering from blood disorders—was abandoned by both his parents. Sinclair had even witnessed his own mother die horribly before his eyes.
After that, it was as if he had completely lost the ability to process emotions.
