Seraphina's POV
"Say it." The words came out from my lips very sharp before I could even stop them.
But my arms were folded on my chest, but my hands shook, it was betraying me. The sea fortress was quiet around us, it was too quiet, so Kira had taken Lyric from the chamber, leaving me alone with Caelum there.
The man I loved, and also the man who broke me. He was standing across the room, his broad shoulders were already down, his eyes were so darkened.
His hands were already bloodied, though it was not from the battle tonight. I could smell the iron, I could sense the restless way he kept curling them into fists like he wanted to hold me but would not even dare to do that.
"You want the truth?" He breath in so hard.
"You think you still have a choice? I want everything, Caelum. All the lies and all the reasons. Why her, and why not me. Just tell me why you threw me away and took her in instead." My laugh was empty.
