Because I was completely blinded by my love for Ashton, I foolishly kept quiet and learned to submit.
Honestly, I still have feelings for him now, but I know those feelings are already changing—quickly.
Back to reality, I glared at him. "I'm capable of fighting back now because, after all these years, I'm finally learning how to unlove you—no, to hate you."
His head tilted.
"That's right. I want to sever our mating bond because I fucking hate you, Ashton Grey," I stated.
Kathryn's Point of View
A few moments later, as the tension began to fade, Tiana rose from her seat and leaned into Ashton, wrapping him in a delicate embrace.
"I have to go," She said softly, her tone sweet.
Then she turned to me, giving a slight, humble bow. "It's okay if you don't want to apologize, my sister. But let me do it instead. I'm truly sorry for how things escalated. It was never my intention to cause chaos between you two."
But as soon as she finished, she shot me a quick glare, a smirk creeping onto her face. There it was—her usual act, playing the innocent one to earn Ashton's sympathy.
I simply rolled my eyes.
