Moonspear eye of the untold her

She hadn’t anticipated a love confession. Treepie’s ears pulled backward and her face began to crumple. It would make this even harder, especially because—she might feel grateful about this at a later date—she didn’t think she was quite there yet. Terrible guilt squeezed her battered heart.

I can’t have your children, she said, her voice shaking as she began to cry, and I’m not…

Her mind flashed to Sobeille. There was no love lost between them now, but she’d once felt deeply for the woman. She wished she could deny it, but she didn’t bother trying. Her guilt deepened when she realized she’d felt more in love with Sobeille once than she did with Kindle now.

But that realization gave her the strength to say, I don’t think I can be your girlfriend anymore, Kindle. I’m so sorry, between sobs.
