Saving 6 (Boys of Tommen, #3)

by Chloe Walsh

I would never abandon them. If I could do nothing else, I would spare them that pain.

“I really, really don’t love you, asshole.”

Because Molloy didn’t know what it felt like to wake up every morning with a strong inclination to attempt suicide. She didn’t know how it felt to be a helpless child, half-starved from hunger, and even more starved for a way out of a home he wasn’t wanted in. She didn’t know what it felt like to be that hopeless kid who finally found something that helped him through the pain and sheer fucking misery that was his life. And she had no idea how quickly the shift in balance had happened for that kid, how it had snuck up on him so unexpectedly.

“Fine. I love you, Aoife Molloy.” “Don’t.” “I love you,” I reiterated, eyes locked on hers as I brushed away a tear from her cheek. “I love you more than I have ever loved another person in my life, and that’s not an exaggeration. That’s the god-honest truth.” “Joe.”

“Exactly. I’m not replacing you, Molloy.” I couldn’t. “I’m trying to fix me.” For you.
