chapter48 Indecisive
It had been over a month since they returned to the island. Scarlett, like a doll, didn't want to think about her and Asher's future. She feared that having expectations would only lead to disappointment, and the more she dwelled on it, the deeper the pain became. She knew Asher liked her, deeply, but his mindset was far from ordinary; possession and dominance were ingrained in him. He loved her and believed she should naturally love him back.
