Chapter 5 - The Choice Between Loyalty and Love
Tyler Voss returned with one final threat.
Not against Roman.
Against Lydia.
He knew she had helped expose him.
And he knew exactly where to hurt her.
Her father.
Gary Bennett disappeared.
Lydia blamed herself.
Roman found her outside his building late at night.
"You can't fix everyone."
She looked angry.
"Don't tell me that."
"I'm telling you because nobody told me."
She looked at him.
Roman continued:
"I spent my life believing protecting people meant controlling everything."
A pause.
"It doesn't."
Lydia's eyes softened.
"Roman..."
"I can't save you from every person who hurts you."
He looked at her.
"But I can stand beside you while you fight."
