Chapter 31: Resistance–2
Damn it, how had I thought Leo would accept Aurora? His loyalty to Thea ran too deep. Sometimes I wondered if he loved her more than me.
“Is it because she’s not your mom?” Maybe he was just resistant to Aurora because he thought she was replacing Thea.
“I just don’t like her. And she’s Mom’s sister – that’s weird, Dad.” He was brutally honest.
Leo’s aversion to Aurora mirrored Thea’s attitude exactly. Could that be coincidence? Was Thea secretly influencing our son against Aurora? It wouldn’t surprise me one bit.
“Listen, Leo, I’m dating Aurora, and I need you to respect her. One day I might marry her, and she’ll be your stepmother. You need to get used to her being around.”

I looked at her beautiful face. Finally, after all these years, we were together. I’d thought everything would get better, but reality was proving the opposite. It seemed like

If my son opposed this, how could I be with her? What the fuck was I supposed to do?
“Talk to me, Seb. You know I’m here.” She pleaded.
Her beautiful brows furrowed. “Because of yesterday?”
