Fracture Me (Shatter Me, #2.5)

by Tahereh Mafi

A weak link can bring everything down with it, and I don’t think this is the time to be taking chances.

I might walk onto that battlefield with a beating heart and be dragged off with a dead one.

I’m one part furious and one part terrified, and the two are having a battle of their own in my mind.

Aren’t you in love with this girl? Where’s the fire under your ass? I thought you would be dying to get to her right now—”

LITERALLY. Like wyd rn Adam??? Just hanging out and chilling while the “love of your life” is being tortured?? Got it.

I love Juliette. I really do. I want to help her and support her and be there for her. I want us to have a future together. But sometimes I wonder if it’s ever going to happen. This isn’t easy to admit, but part of me doesn’t want to put James at risk again—on the run again—for a girl who broke up with me. A girl who walked away from us. I don’t know what the right thing is anymore. I don’t know if my allegiance is to James or Juliette.
