his eyes study her for what must be mere seconds , but he learns a lifetime’s worth of knowledge from it regardless. how often has he done this ? yet still he learns. and he never tires of it. it’s dangerous to indulge. it’s more dangerous to want to.
❛ in my experience , the right way is never the easiest , but . . . ❜
but that may be a personality trait as opposed to an objective observation. the right way would entail letting her go. or never letting her leave. the right way would be any way other than the one he wishes to take. but he isn’t a prince , and this isn’t a fairy tale. and to be good or right is to be someone other than who he is.
that isn’t an option. not anymore.
❛ is that what you want , dorcas ? easy ? ❜
his fingers find the edge of her jaw , tracing a path he may as well have worn to the bone by now. he’d never thought of himself as a foolish boy. he wouldn’t dare. but when he looks at dorcas , he knows it to be true. he knows looking her in the eye is the most foolish mistake he has ever made.
and yet , he continues to make it every chance he gets.
❛ easy , it would bore you. and i am not in the habit of boring you , am i ? ❜
