Excerpt
You would have thought it had been months since they had last seen each by the way the two reacted to each other. Kaleel was undressing as soon as he entered Catha’s apartment. He was not foolish enough to deny that he was an attractive, fit man, but it never seemed to mean much to him. Now with his relationship beginning with Catha, he was thankful that the work he had devoted to his body had paid off.

But it wasn’t Rena. It was Catha staring up at the man who hovered above her, trying to process what was going on. Who was this man? Was he allowing the fame to transform him already?
“Now,” he was saying again, the tone in his voice was almost threatening...
It was at this point that Catha saw this episode for what it was: a show of strength by a man who had to be strong for everyone else, yet felt alone himself.
And she forgave him. She knew she had to...
