HIS RELUCTANT MATE
I steadied my breathing, trying to pretend to sleep so that Sterly could also fall asleep.
Time passed, and soon, his breathing calmed.
I didn't move, knowing he would wake up with the slightest movement.
A smile graced my lips as I opened my eyes and sighed softly.
Today was a long day.
It felt like a year or more. But finally, it was over, and with it was all the fear, restlessness, despair, and loss.
When the sun shines tomorrow, it will bring with it a new light and a new bearing.
I, Jared, would never fall under the manipulation of others anymore.
