Chapter 33

ONYX'S POV:

I had left her on the dance floor to get a breather in the bathroom. That was a dick move but I had to do it for my sake.

She had looked at me so innocently that I started feeling guilty. I shouldn't have said something to her. That was me caring too much.

It's all my mother's fault, fuck! If she hadn't made me buy that dress for her, I would have seen her in another light but she looks really beautiful tonight and irresistible, too.

I needed to clear my head. The way she looked at me with warmth. I don't think any women who I've treated wrongly would look at me that way.

Her strength made me feel like the weakest of men. How she could handle me abusing her. How she could speak to me with no atom of hate in her voice. It made me feel terrible.

Sighing, I close my eyes. I don't want to make things right between us. I still hate her for coming into my life and making things worse. Heck, she doesn't even have a wolf and that alone is a shame.
