Unscarred

He was the man who walked away first.

Confident, desired, and certain that love would always wait for him, he treated a woman's heart like something replaceable-something that would forgive, bend, and stay. When she finally left, he called it freedom.
He was wrong.

Years later, success tastes hollow, nights stretch longer, and every victory echoes with a name he never learned how to say with care. The woman he once broke has become everything he never imagined-untouchable, unrecognizable, and no longer his to lose.

Now, he wants more than her forgiveness.
He craves her presence.
Her fire.
Her choosing him.
But some loves are not meant to be reclaimed.
