I eased back and stared up into Trent’s eyes, and he gazed back at me with a mixture of hurt and compassion. “For eternity,” he said.
“That’s not funny.”
“It wasn’t meant to be,” he said, cradling my face in his hands. “Heightened emotions, remember? Vampires can hold grudges for a very long time.”
I frowned. “I hurt you, too, and you forgave me.”
“Because I chose to. Jax hasn’t. Not yet,” Trent said and kissed my forehead. “He will eventually. Just give him some time.”
Sighing, I nodded. More than ever, I wished things could go back to how they were before Jax ever bit me, back when we were friends and there was no lingering feelings or animosity between us.
Trent’s phone rang. He released me, grabbed his phone from his pocket, and frowned. “I’ll be right back.” And then he was gone.
