Chapter 9

Author’s Note Okay … this one hurt a little, not gonna lie.Not because of what he said—but how he said it. No hesitation. No emotion. Just… decided. Like it was already done and Brielle didn’t even factor into it.And honestly? That kind of rejection hits differently.Also—did you notice she didn’t break?No tears. No begging. No dramatic reaction.Just… done.That’s the shift.Because before, she might’ve taken that to heart. Tonight? She walked away like his opinion didn’t define her—and that’s where things start changing.Tell me what you think 👀Did he go too far, or was that exactly who he’s always been?And more importantly… do we think he’s going to regret that? 😏🔥More coming soon 💛
