"I don't trust you. Just tell me the truth."
Ethan's expression didn't change. His eyes stayed locked on mine-steady, unreadable.
"Emma, I'm trying to protect you."
"From what?" My voice wavered, my pulse hammering. "From the truth? From myself?"
A flicker of something crossed his face. Regret. Pain. Maybe even guilt.
And that's when I knew.
I wasn't asking the right question.
It wasn't what he was protecting me from.
It was who.

Somewhere, buried deep in the memories I lost, is the answer.

Maybe I was never meant to.
