What I Meant to Say

Deceit Duet, Book 2

She walked away from us when she needed me most. I should have stopped her. I should have begged her to stay. But I didn’t. I let her believe I thought she was crazy.

But she came back. She accepted me just like I accept her. Every single part of her - even the parts she herself can’t accept.

Blake is terrified she can’t be the woman I need. She lives in constant fear of not being a good mother to our unborn child. Most of all, she is terrified of herself.

Her condition isn’t fixable. There is no cure. All I can do is love her with everything that I am and be there for her. I just pray it’s enough.
