A Shot of Pretty Poison (Pretty Poison Trilogy #3)

by Kelsey Clayton

“There’s a part of me that still loves you,” I say honestly. “There’s always going to be a part of me that still loves you. But right now, there’s a part of me that wants to hate you, and I’m not sure which is stronger.” She sniffles, wiping away her tears and nodding. “I get that. I do.” I get up from the table and put my fist on it. “Just do me a favor?” “Anything,” she replies, and I know she means that. “Don’t go anywhere until I figure it out.”

“So, that’s her, huh?” she asks. “The girl who made it so you don’t believe in love anymore?” I let myself look at Laiken for a moment before I answer, feeling the way I still crave her like an addiction that never seems to fully go away. “I believe in love,” I say simply. “I just don’t believe in it with anyone but her.”

The door opens again and Cam steps in, but he stops and looks around, confused. “What the fuck are you doing in here? Playing musical clothes?”

I will spend the rest of my life being incomprehensibly in love with her. And if there’s a life after this one, I’ll go to the ends of the earth to find her again, because her soul and mine are two halves of a whole. There’s no me without her.
