Chapter Twenty

Marley

I don’t think I’ve ever felt this sick or nervous in my whole life. How am I meant to tell the man I planned to spend my life with that we can’t be together?

Roman didn’t want me to put off telling Marcus one more day. He’s right; I can’t. I’ve made my choice, and now I have to tell Marcus that it’s over between us.

The thing is, I don’t want to hurt him. We’ve been through a lot together. Marcus once meant everything to me. However, it’s inevitable that I will hurt him. He’s told me each time we’ve met that he wants me back, that he won’t stop until I’m home with him, even that he wants to adopt Romany, yet if I had chosen him that would never have happened.

It was all too much. I was genuinely in love with Marcus once, but I no longer am. I didn’t even know it was possible to fall out of love with one man and deeper in love with another.

However, that’s precisely what’s happened to me. I’ve fallen so deeply in love with Roman that I can’t see anyone but him. He’s my soulmate. He was the one I was destined to be with. I went through all that hell just to find him. My heart feels lighter now that I’ve admitted it to both him and myself.

I’m not doing this because I believe Romany deserves to have her mother and father together. No matter how much you love your child, it will only hurt them to have two parents who don’t like each other pretend they do. Those things have a way of coming back to haunt you, just as they did with my parents.

I want to be with Roman because he stole my heart at a time I believed I could never love again, that no man could ever love me. I didn’t trust anyone or anything. Roman showed me that I had nothing to fear because he’d always be there for me.

Of course, it wasn’t Marcus’ fault that he couldn’t be there for me, he had no clue I was even alive, but the past couple times I’ve met with him, they haven’t been as happy as I thought they’d be. Pushing me the way he did only served to push me away from him.

Why the hell would I want to take my daughter away from her father and move to Paris?

I didn’t tell Roman this fact. I’m not sure what he would have done had I told him. Also, after finding out that he has another daughter whom he doesn’t even know the name of because she was taken away from him, I know I could never do such a thing. He’s a wonderful father to our little girl. He’s restored my faith in men and the fact they’re not all monsters, even if he is a biker.

“You gonna be okay on your own, or would you like me to come with you?”

I shake my head at Elie.
