If you love a bird, cage it, then let it fly. If it returns, then it knows where home is.
JULIAN
Like a breath of fresh air, a little bird flew into my life. Astoria was desperate for me to be her hero, but I’m no hero.
I tried to train her to be my pet and it broke both of us.
I let her run, gave her time and space, but she’ll never be free of me. I’ll always find her. She’s mine.
ASTORIAHe snuck into my home, always wearing a mask, did unimaginable depraved things to me, then whispered his own name into my ear. Julian.
He insisted I was his then destroyed me.
No matter where I run, nothing calms my craving for him. It’s disgusting but I'm addicted. I’ll never forgive him. I shouldn’t.
