CHAPTER 414
~Zara's POV~
"And how do you feel?"
Those words replayed in my head for a few seconds before I wore my best smile and hesitated a little before answering. "Like I did the right thing."
"Is that truly how you feel, Zara?"
Her words made something inside me tighten.
I wanted to say yes, to believe that cutting Snow off was the best decision for me. But the ache in my chest told a different story.
"I don't know," I admitted. "I was so sure that if I left, if I rejected him, he would finally let me go and I could move on. But even now, it still hurts."
Luna Star sighed, setting her cup down. "That's because love doesn't just disappear, my dear. And your love for Snow… it was never weak."
I swallowed, looking away. "Then why wasn't I enough? I had hoped that doing this would also make him see what he was losing and make him chase after me."
Luna Star reached over and squeezed my hand gently. "Oh, Zara. You were never the problem."
