The Unwanted Bride Of Atticus Fawn Chapter 48

~ATTICUS~

“Hold me tighter,” Anya says as I wrap my arms around her. I do as she says, but something doesn’t seem right. She’s still the same woman I fell in love with; she looks the same and acts the same, but there was something that made me feel uncomfortable about the entire thing.

Ever since I recovered from the accident that I had no memory of ever happening, my feelings for Anya felt wrong. I couldn’t tell her that without hurting her feelings. So I kept it all to myself, but it was bothering me ever since I woke up and felt a surge of emptiness when she hugged me on the hospital bed. I hadn’t been able to focus on anything ever that day.

Maybe the accident messed with my head and my heart. I constantly felt like I had forgotten someone important to me. I was searching the room for someone that day, and I never found her. I thought that it was Anya that I was looking for, but I soon realized that it wasn’t her. It was someone else, but that didn’t make sense to me.

I considered speaking to Dante and Damon about it, but they haven’t been acting normal around me. No one was acting normal. They treated me like they were afraid I would snap any second now.

“Atticus?” Anya whispers.

Whenever I touched her, I felt like I was betraying someone else. But who could I possibly be crossing?

“Yes.” I finally respond even though my mind is far.

“Is everything okay?” She asks hesitantly. “You seem to be a bit distant with me recently. I feel like something is wrong. I’m here for you if you need someone to talk to.”

I nod, “I know that you are. I’m just uneasy not knowing anything about the accident. No one wants to talk to me about it. The articles seem fake. The only proof I have of the accident is the jeep.”
