"Why now?" The words hung in the thick, charged silence of the Madison motel room. Sam stood across from you, the space between you feeling both intimate and vast. His hazel-green eyes, usually so sharp with intelligence, were clouded with a raw, terrified vulnerability. He loved you—a fierce, desperate love that had become his greatest fear. The ghosts of everyone he’d ever failed rose between you. Pushing you away, making you hate him, felt like the only mercy he could offer, the only way to carve a safe path for you out of the death that shadowed his every step.
