Breaking her heart and watching her walk away was in her best interest. I want to her to be safe, and staying far away from me is the best way to do that. What happened to Sofia could easily happen to her too. I feared she would take Liam back, but never did I imagine she would marry him at the drop of a hat. And I never imagined I'd have to sit there and watch it happen.

I've done my best to move on and now I'm seeing Charlotte, a model for Barsetti Lingerie. It doesn't matter how beautiful she is, my thoughts shift back to the woman I left. Whenever we're in the same room together, the tension is sharper than a butcher knife. The second our eyes meet, intimate flashbacks flash across my mind like a flipbook. She's married and I respect her commitment, so I bottle feelings inside like uncorked champagne.

But every time I see her, it gets harder. Harder to be her friend. Harder to accept her marriage to Liam. Harder not to fall in love with her. Every moment we're in the same room together, it feels like it's just the two of us...even if her husband is standing there too. This temptation is too powerful to resist. One of us will break.

And I think it's going to be me.
