He loved her the moment he saw her. She was not his to keep. Her pain took over her entire world, but he loved her through it until she walked away from him.

Love is nothing but a nuisance.

At least, that’s how it feels when someone doesn’t return the affection.

Eriks knew that Lada was the one the first time he laid eyes on her. It didn’t matter what her career was or what happened in her past. Nothing else mattered because she was meant to be only his.

When Lada walks away from him, he lets her go, allowing her to make that decision for herself.

Lada can’t heal. Her life was turned upside down, and she’s been stuck in an unhealthy cycle. When Nikita comes to her with an ultimatum, she chooses to walk away from Eriks in an effort to save him from herself.

She has likely made the worst decision of her life, but she hopes it’s the best decision for Eriks.

Where there is love, there is pain, is a saying that has never rung more true. What this world brings together, let no man… or woman tear apart. Will they be able to live with their decisions, or will they turn their backs on one another to live the paths they choose?
