“I don’t and will never love you, Colt.” Colt let go of me. His eyes hurt, but he forces a smile before disappearing through my door. The way I rejected him was nasty, but if that’s the best way for him to stop loving me, then I’m not regretting it. I know what it’s like to love someone who doesn't love you back. Worse, he’s in love with someone else, and out of all women, your own sister. I don’t want Michelle to experience what I’ve experienced with Zaide and Tara. I don’t want our father to be torn between his daughters fighting over a man. I’ve gone to Alpha Orion with the hope that he’ll grant my request to give me a different bodyguard. The thing is, I can’t come up with any reasonable excuse as to why, can’t also tell him the truth. Unfortunately, his faith in Colt is far strong
