She also knows she's taking the coward's way out, unable to look Lucian in the eyes and tell him to his face she's leaving him. Although he will always be her lighthouse, she believes ending their relationship is for the best. She fears that as long as they're together, he's in far more danger than she is. Unwilling to allow him to crash against the tide attempting to save her, she loves enough to let him go. *Trigger Warning: This book features dark themes that may be sensitive to some readers.*
