Love Unspoken

The intensity of his gaze was so profound that it almost convinced Quinn of his love for her. Yet, the only thought that consumed her was the statement issued by Kennedy Enterprise that very day. A statement that served as a stark reminder, a warning, that his love was not hers to claim..

With a slow, deliberate motion, Quinn released her hold on his fingers, raising her hand to hover before his eyes. "It won't happen," she declared.

His focus shifted, landing on her fingers once more. Quinn gestured again, her words echoing in the silent room. "I won't forget you."

How could she? His presence had been a constant in her life since she was a mere child of five. His influence was etched into her very being, a trace of him in every memory. She could forget Soren, Orion, and Abigail, but not him. Quinn was unsure whether this was a blessing or a curse. It felt like a cruel twist of fate; in the past, he was all she had, and it seemed, in the future, he would be all she would ever have.

Alexander took her fingers in his, gently massaging them. His voice broke the silence, "Did you take the pills?"

Quinn nodded in response.

"You must take the pills obediently..." His words trailed off as he glanced at his wristwatch, realizing the day was drawing to a close. Any further conversation seemed futile.
