As I watched Hayley wince from the rough way I handled her, rubbing her wrist in discomfort, a flicker of regret crept into my chest.

Even after what I had done, she refused to show any weakness.

There was something noble and proud about her as if it were etched into her very being. She carried the air of a natural–born leader–a woman I felt was worthy of being mine.
