“I wish for you to stay.” The edge of the ring bit into his palm - hand fisted in tight, angry frustration.
She didn’t look up, misery bowed her head. “I can’t. Not after what you did ... I don’t think I’ll ever trust you again.”
A muscle tightened his jaw. There were certain appetites that Hermione would never agree to fulfil. He needed an outlet somewhere. She’d discovered his secret. Unfortunately.
“But I love you.” He pulled out the trump card.
“No, you don't even know the meaning; it's just a vestigial word for a feeling you've never felt.”
Failure.
