A Broken Forever

Ace POV

I held my little vixen in my arms kissing her, trying to make it last forever. Her soft lips belonged on mine. My tongue needed to caress hers every day, but we weren't getting our forever.

She pulled away and every part of me tried to hold on to her. I watched our fingers slowly slide out of each other's and I took a hard breath as she walked away one last time. This wasn't the way we were supposed to be.

"I know you love her, but you have to let her go. You could have just as easily turned that bust on your father, dissolved everything he built, and been left with nothing but that girl. You chose to stay, and I pray it was to keep fighting and not for the money and power." Ethan's hand clapped my shoulder. "My father told me you didn't just get her eyes but you also got her soul and that's why you were worth saving. Be safe bro."

"You're still an asshole. Keep her safe."

He smiled at me then wobbled away. That was really it, the end of Christian and Alley and our forever. E
