She is my forbidden fruit. The one temptation I cannot resist.
The first nightâ¦
I rescued her from an attack in the seedy underground of New York City.
The second nightâ¦
She told me the first of many lies.
She thinks she can keep me out of her world, but sheâs in over her head. Watching her, being near her, it gives breath to something dark inside me. Something primal and forbidden. Forbidden to me.
Because in six months, Iâll be an ordained priest.
And she complicates things.
She thinks she is my disgrace. Truth is, my fall had begun the moment Iâd laid eyes on her.
