Burn Butterfly Burn (Masked Duet, #2)

“You know why she danced in that cage, behind that mask? It’s because she wanted to BE that woman but she was too afraid to be her in real life. She told me…” He barks out a crazed laugh. “She told me that you were the first man to SEE her, to look at her like she was something. She said you made her feel fucking…WORTHY! Argg! She was so fucking wrong. Savy’s always been worthy. You’re the one who isn’t worthy of her.”

Jude cups my face and presses his forehead against mine. “That’s alright, doll. I’ll go with you. I’ll sit in the dark with you until you’re ready and then I’ll be the light to show you the way out.”
