Chapter 55

Nova’s POV

My dear Queen Nova,

I know that our marriage has not been a definitive one, nor has it been one of love. I am not a man who knows how to love, and I have never loved anyone before. All I have known is friendship, and I always thought that was enough for me. But then, I brought you into my life, which somehow changed everything.

I never thought I would someday regret my actions, nor have I ever thought I would one day say this to anyone, but I regret ever making you be in a marriage against your will.

I never realized how much I was hurting you, because you had never said a word, never once complained. But when you hugged me that day in front of your father's building, and when you wrapped your arms around my neck in my apartment, I thought maybe there was something more between us. I never realized that it was just your way of showing your gratitude. I'm so sorry, I should have seen how my actions were affecting you.

Please don't blame yourself for what happened in there.
