"You are a prisoner," he replied bluntly, his gaze unwavering. "You forget your place, Katrina." What? Anger flared inside me. "You can't keephere forever! I deserve a life, too. You promised things would be different, and yet here I am stuck, while you get to do whatever you want." "I did? When did I promise things would be different?

"Well. What use am I going to be to you if I remain indoors for the rest of my life?" I asked, brow coming up.
No one said I was is going to remain with him for the test of my life, but still used it as an example.
I have no issues using his money all my life, but I needed to do something for myself.

Silas cut in, his voice sharp now. He leaned forward, his elbows resting on the desk, eyes narrowing. "And that's final." My chest tightened, but I refused to back down. "I'm serious, Silas. I can't do this anymore. You don't get to control every part of my life," Why didn't he understand that? I couldn't stay locked up like ssort of prisoner.
