A Thousand Apologies, Too Late

Kia Laight and Brian Cordfield's story begins on a rainy night, when Brian lights her path with a flashlight—becoming her gentlest guiding light and the man she willingly shields from his enemy's blade. She sacrifices her chance at motherhood to save him, yet he offers no resistance when faced with his mother's objection. Heartbroken, Kia walks away, leaving Brian with regrets he realizes far too late.
