Madness (L.O.R.D.S., #6)

by Shantel Tessier

Put a bell on me and call me kitten. I’ll purr for my Lord.

Allowing myself to fall in love with her is madness. No matter how I try to justify it, the ending will be the same.

I got caught up in a life with her and kept thinking it would last longer. That I’d have more time to spend with her and figure out a plan for our future. But that’s what love does to you—dream. It’s all a lie. There is no such thing. It’s a small crack in a ship’s hull that slowly fills with water until it can no longer stay afloat. Nothing lasts forever.

I’ve learned that it’s okay to love someone no matter how little time you get with them.

“Please know that I loved you more than anything in this world…and when I walk out this door, I’m leaving a piece of myself behind with you because nothing short of forever would have been enough.”

I’ve always loved rainy days, but today is different.

But Haidyn taught me to use my words. To say what I want and how I feel. I love who I am with him more than I ever loved who I was before he entered my life.
