Brianna POV:
Roger had just admitted he knew of my mother's death and failed to tell me. I had just given him everything, my hand, my body, and above all my trust and in return he showed me to be a starry eyed fool. I guess that's what happens when you travel in time you start believing things should be like a fairy tale where the knight fights for the princess and they all live happily ever after. Well this princess just realized her knight is more of knob and I am not tying myself for the rest of my life to a man who would deny me my own agency.
If he really believed his own ridiculous argument that we can't decide who lives and dies in the past that means my birth father was wrong to ever send me and my mother forward, I might as well be an abomination in his eyes if that was what he truly felt but I know differently.
I can see it all so damn clearly now, he wanted me, he wanted me for himself and on his terms... it didn't matter what I wanted for my life, I thought him following me through time meant he would do anything for me... go to any lengths to ensure my wellbeing but I was wrong, he came for selfish reasons and left me here in the dead of night in a dangerous time because the picture he had of me in his mind, the well behaved woman who fell in line with what her husband thought... it turned out to be nothing more than an illusion. The moment I challenged him, expressed a different opinion than his and fought for myself he showed who he truly was.
Well, to hell with him.
To hell with all men. I came here to save my parents and that's what I will do.
