Chapter 759 Growth and Vulnerability
Draven and Ayla could land here now because both of them had been willing to grow. That closeness had been built, inch by inch.
And it had everything to do with those four months apart.
Though maybe if Draven had fought for her right away, things would’ve unfolded differently, too. Differently didn’t mean worse.
Either way, everything happened for a reason. Look for the good in it, and you’ll stop picking apart the pain and the regret.
