Reborn From Oblivion by Christia Muray

Now, only Cameron and Greta remained in the room.

Tension hung in the air, tight as a drawn bow. Greta's eyes, once bright with stubborn affection, now held nothing but weary resignation as she looked at Cameron.

"Cameron, do you blame me?" Her voice was so soft it barely made a sound, as if she could shrink herself small enough to disappear. That's how she always was around him-humbled, almost apologetic.

Cameron was cold, distant. "Would it change anything if I did? Nell and I... we're strangers now."

Tears slipped down Greta's cheeks as she edged closer. "Cameron, Morris is out of his mind. He'd do anything to get Nellie. Why go up against him? You can't win with someone like him."

Cameron's handsome features tightened, a crack running through his composure. "If Nell ever remembers, she'll see Morris for the wolf he really is. She'd never choose him. Nellie's too kind for someone who's all scheming and lies."

Greta's sobs came harder. "So you're giving up on me? You're picking Nathalie over me, aren't you?"

Cameron's patience snapped. "Her name is Nellie. She's my Nell. She's not Nathalie."
