Are you ready to talk now, Bonnie? Nope, not at all, but here goes nothing I guess. Yes. There is a lot I want to day, at I need to krig, fors Un going to go first. He hasn’t been very kind to me so far and the least he can do is go first and maybe explain to me why he doesn’t want me if kome s have a lot to talk about, but first I just want to clear something up. You mentioned earlier about me having women in my life, and I was wondering whatÂ
you meant?–Â
Just what I said. I know you have a woman, but again, as long as she makes you happy, then I’m happy for your Im not sure what else I’m supposed to say. Yes, the thought of him with someone else hurts like hell, but that’s his choice, and I’m not going to try and force him into something he doesnt want, namely a relationship with me. He looks confused as he stares at me. “I don’t know where you got that from, but I assure you, I don’t have women in my life. not in the relationship sense anyway.”Â
“I saw you at the ball with that girl, you were hugging her when she was upset and comforting her, and then just before I woke up I heard a woman tell you that she loved you, and you said it back. I may be young, but please don’t treat me like an idiot! I’m getting pissed again. It’s obvious that there is quite an age gap between us, but that doesn’t mean he can treat me like some dumb kid.Â
I haven’t gotten to be a kid in a very long time, come to think of it. I’m not sure if I ever did get to be a kid. I’ve always had responsibilities put on me and always had to act older than I am.Â
“Bonnie, I assure you that I have no intentions of treating you like an idiot. This woman at the ball, was it the one who got rejected by her mate?” I nod as I shift myself, trying to get comfortable. “Yes, that is the woman,” I swear I see him smirk, but I can’t figure out why. Nothing about this situation amuses me in the slightest. “That woman is called Sophie. She’s 21, and she was best friends with my sister. She is like a sister to me. Yes, I was comforting her, but it was purely in a brother’s role and nothing else.”Â
Oh well now, I do feel like an idiot. “Oh… Wait, you said she was your sister’s best friend? Do they no longer speak? On second thoughts, ignore that question. It was personal and none of my business.” He gives me a smile that seems genuine, and I feel a tug in my heart. Every second around him makes this whole situation so much harder. “No, it’s OK, I’ll answer. You can ask me anything, Bonnie. So, as I said, Sophie was my sister’s best friend.Â
My sister, Angelina, was the sweetest girl and the only sister to four older brothers, so you can imagine how over–protected she was and spoiled too. Still, she never acted it and would do anything for anyone, which is whyÂ
feel so sad for him.Â
er theÂ
nickname Angel.” He laughs a little, making me smile but inside IÂ
“Anyway, when they were 13 they crossed the borders with a few friends unprotected, even when they knew they weren’t supposed to, and were attacked by a Rogue. The Rogue was three times their size and despite there being several of them and only one of him, they still didn’t stand a chance. Three of the four girls died that day and while Angel didn’t make it, Sophie did, but she was left permanently scared from the bottom of her left eye down to her chin and I know life has been hard for her since that day.”Â

Ugh, based on your “mature” description of Bonnie. Nic would have been the better choice of name then Nicky. Now I feel like she is 13.Â
