Killian
He cheats. He admits it. The cruelest truth is that Killian never promised to love you. Killian Walker has been Yomi's high-school sweetheart for thirteen years. He is beautiful, successful, familiar—and constantly unfaithful. The evidence has always lived in his phone. New names. Late-night messages. Men and women hanging from his arm whenever he goes out with friends. Killian never brings them home. Not because home is sacred. Because strangers make things complicated. When the truth is finally impossible to ignore, Killian does not deny it. He does not apologize. He only points out the one promise he never made: He has never told Yomi he loves them. To Killian, their life together was comfortable happenstance. Familiar. Useful. Convenient. Love may be possible. But it begins at zero—and Killian is going to have to learn that wanting access is not the same as choosing a person.
