Selene continued to cry. This wasn't working. He hurt her too much. What could he do? The questioning in her voice broke his heart. He had done something unforgivable, and he didn't even remember it. Worse yet, without a memory of what had happened he could give no guarantee it wouldn't repeat, since he didn't know the reason why in the first place. Her cries about him not touching her in such a way was painful as well. He didn't touch her, because he was afraid of hurting her. All his actions to protect her had backfired.
There was one thing he could still do for her. As much as it hurt him to do this, he could set Selene free, to never have her hurt by him again. Not after this. Hadley's body stilled. Inside him he found a strength, one he had never used for himself, but was able to use for Selene. I love you. So we won't be together. Y-you find someone better. Someone who won't make you cry. Hadley released Selene, brushing the hair from her face. He studied it, memorizing the shape before turning and walking away, his steps strong and swift to leave her behind.
