She looks at me, her eyes filling with tears, and for a moment I think she’s going to argue. But then she just nods, her shoulders slumping in defeat.
“Very well,” she murmurs, looking down at her desk to avoid meeting my gaze.
I don’t wait for her to say anything else. I turn on my heels and walk out of the room, leaving her to grapple with her own guilt.
I make my way back home, ascending the grand staircase that leads to my office. The air feels heavier with each step I take, laden with a mixture of dread and regret.
“Now, onto the next step,” I think to my wolf. “I’ve decided that I’m going to write Abby a letter. A heartfelt, genuine letter that’s going to make her see exactly why I did what I did.”
I settle into my leather chair, then open up a new document on my laptop. My fingers hover over the keys, but as it turns out, it’s much more difficult than I thought to draft the perfect words.
“Dear Abby,” I begin, then pause, staring at the blinking cursor on the screen. It feels too formal, too distant.
“You really think that’ll win her back?” my wolf asks with a scoff. “Try again.”
I press the backspace key until the screen is empty again. “Alright, let’s try something else. Abby, I please hear me out—”
“Way too desperate,” my wolf interrupts again. “No woman wants a man who begs like that.”
With a frustrated growl, I delete the sentence. My mind feels like a scrambled mess, thoughts and emotions colliding in a chaotic jumble. Finally, after what feels like an eternity, I’ve fully exhausted all of my ideas and yet the page is still blank.
