Unexpected Love: Leaving My Toxic Boyfriend For Good

Kian always told me I was special.

But not special enough to stand beside him in public.

Not special enough to choose.

While he paraded around with Maya—his picture-perfect mate—I was the secret. The stolen nights. The girl he only touched in the dark.

And when I begged for more, he would say, “You know how things are, Selene. This is the only way.”

The only way?

I gave him everything. My time, my body, my loyalty. And he gave me silence, shadows, and excuses.

So I did the one thing he never thought I would.

I left.

Now, he’s calling. Searching. Spiraling.

But I’ve changed.
