His Dark Obsession by Moonlight Muse

79. A Shocking Reality

EVANGELINE.

I lower my barriers, letting all my thoughts and emotions spread through me. I feel the darkness rise, then the stormy havoc that begins to whirl around my head.

‘Then… if I tell you everything, swear me an oath that you will be the one to die… Once the curse is broken, if you manage it, and free me from this prison you put me into, promise me that you will let me live one life

Make me an oath that you will give your life to end this curse!”

To die… to leave Zedkiel… The crippling pain of heartbreak rushes through me, but I know I can’t be selfish. I need to do what is right…

I will break the curse, even if it does cost me my life.
