Why Keep Me in the Shadows If You Care

For seven years, Jared has called his devotion jealousy. He warns that anyone who notices me will want me, yet he keeps me far from every part of his life. Then a secret profile leads me to his online world, where hundreds of photos reveal a romance I was never meant to see. While he hid me, he proudly shared trips, kisses, and promises with someone else. His newest post celebrates their love before an audience of friends. I close the screen, buy a ticket to Northram, and realize that walking away can happen in a single breath.
