Wicked princess

A minute later he peels out of our driveway. 

I look at Jace, who’s gone silent. 

“Say something.” 

Yell at me. Demand I break up with him. Something. 

He shrugs helplessly. “What the hell do you want me to say, Bianca?”

The sheer hurt etched in his features makes me want to keel over and die.

He starts walking away but stops abruptly. 

“I really fucking miss her.”

I have no idea who he’s talking about. “Who?” 

“My sister.” His eyes cut to mine. “The one who might lie to everyone else in her life but would never lie to me.” 

With that, he stalks off. 

I expected him to be angry…disappointed. 

But I never expected him to look at me like I stabbed him in the back. 

And I definitely never thought I’d break his trust.
