The Throne of Broken Gods (Gods & Monsters, #2)

by Amber V. Nicole

I couldn’t stop the words coming from my mouth. “That’s what this is? You say yes because of a tryst?” The pain disappeared, replaced by anger, and then his face went cold, all emotion locked away. “A tryst? Like all the ones you’ve had for centuries? It’s always another girl, another guy, another being.” It was the first time Xavier had ever snapped at me. The first time since we had met, become friends, or whatever we were. “You do this now? After everything, you want to confess something now?” “Xavi—” “Don’t call me that. This is bullshit. You’ve been fucking Elianna and kept it from me when you tell me everything.” “Oh, come on, that means nothing.” “It meant something if you hid it. You knew my feelings and did nothing, or actually, you did everything but what you should have.”
