Starlight's Edge
“She had hardly even known a boy who was more than just a friend. Her dream had been to become an empath, and to do that, she had set aside many things and left home at a young age to live and study in London. She had never imagined herself falling in love there.
One of the nicest surprises, after she got over her initial gobsmacked state, had been the way she felt she could tell David anything. The feeling she had of closeness with him, a feeling so special she told herself she’d never put it a...t risk. Yet now she felt a distance between them. Just a crack at first, but it widened a little bit every day. She wondered if he felt it too.
The worst part was, she’d started it herself.
All the things she’d kept to herself had created the distance little by little. What if she had told David, that very first night she’d met Paul, how strongly she’d felt there was something wrong? What if she’d told him that Mia cared for him and resented Zee’s presence? What if she’d told him her suspicions about the accident with the nano storage unit that night at the party and about his father’s warning visit to her, how she’d seen his determination to push his sons to the top and set them on a path that would let nothing and no one—Zee, for instance—get in the way?MoreLess
