BELLE

The moment Grayson left me, severe pain started. I shouldn’t have been surprised.

My body knew he was close and was punishing me for sending him away. I wanted him by me so badly.

I sank down into one of the booths near me. Tears came pouring out of me. I dropped my face into my hands and sobbed.

I could feel Grayson’s eyes on me, his gaze feeling like a warm blanket on my skin.

Sparks danced along my body, soothing me even though I would have never admitted it.

He was near, probably watching me from somewhere outside. I didn’t allow myself to look for him, though....
