Torn

I was always going to choose Helena. I knew it the instant I saw her.

She’s different than the others. There’s a darkness about her. Something wild inside her. And it calls to the animal inside me.

But she isn’t what I expect. With every word and every touch, she pushes me, burrows deep beneath my skin, challenging the rules, upending history.

And all the while, I see how Gregory watches her. He wants her and as the rules stand, she’ll become his in on year’s time.

Except that I have no intention of giving her up.
