Chapter 67

• ~Lola’s POV~
• I made my way to the bed and hesitantly positioned myself next to it. I know my husband isn’t a better man, but Dante didn’t deserve this. I am so confused right now, and I feel like I am also making the same mistakes he did. But even so, I’m not entirely sure if I love both my husband and Mason, or if I just like the way the two of them make me feel. Am I with Dante because of the kids, or because I actually do love him? Do not misunderstand me; there was a time when I would have done anything to get his attention, but things are not the same as they were before. Dante struck me where it hurts the most, and as a result, he caused me to question both my self-worth and whether I would ever be enough for him, as well as whether our promise was pointless in the first place. I know he apologized, but did I really forgive him, or was my feeling for him pressuring me or the desire to get laid after a long six good years bothering me? Even though I am only human, I have to put aside my lust and think rationally right now. I’m not sure how I feel about Mason; in fact, I’m not even sure why I decided to follow him here in the first place.

I bought some hazelnut cream; let’s eat it while we watch a movie. What do you say?”
