Chapter 31
Roseanne West
I slipped away from Ares' arms and walked towards the window. I bit my lip and took a really deep breath before letting it out. Starting a new page? Will it be worth it in the end?
One thing that I'm scared of is being left again. I lost my mom once.. Bryan too and if I give my heart to Ares.. can he guarantee that he won't leave me? I know that it won't be smooth and it's a part of that journey itself but still.
I opened the balcony door slowly and walked out to feel the cold breeze of New York at night. Suddenly Ares wrapped his arms around me from the back.
"I thought you were sleeping?"
"I was looking for you." He answered.
"Is everything okay?" He asked and I turned to him.
"Yeah." I lied and turned back to the view.
"Everything happens so fast between us, isn't it? I opened up to you quicker that I thought." I said honestly.
"I think it's a really good thing."
"Why?"
