Now, only Cameron and Greta remained in the room.
Tension hung in the air, tight as a drawn bow. Greta's eyes, once bright with stubborn affection, now held nothing
but weary resignation as she looked at Cameron.
"Cameron, do you blme?" Her voice was so soft it barely made a sound, as if she could shrink herself small
enough to disappear. That's how she always was around him-humbled, almost apologetic.
Cameron was cold, distant. "Would it change anything if | did? Nell and I... we're strangers now."
Tears slipped down Greta's cheeks as she edged closer. "Cameron, Morris is out of his mind. He'd do anything to
get Nellie. Why go up against him? You can't win with someone like him."
Cameron's handsfeatures tightened, a crack running through his composure. "If Nell ever remembers, she'll
see Morris for the wolf he really is. She'd never choose him. Nellie's too kind for someone who's all scheming and
lies."
Greta's sobs charder. "So you're giving up on me? You're picking Nathalie over me, aren't you?"
Cameron's patience snapped. "Her nis Nellie. She's my Nell. She's not Nathalie."
Greta's eyes flew wide, shock written all over her face. "You're just as obsessed with her now, aren't you?"
Cameron's fists curled tight. "She was meant to be my wife."
Greta pleaded, "Cameron, if there really is such a thing as reincarnation, do you really think every life is just a
repeat of the last? In the Timeless Cycle, you and Nellie were happy together. But out here, this is a new life.

"Cameron, if you keep living in the past, you're just going to keep hurting. You need to let it go. Treat the
Timeless Cycle like it was just a dream..."
Cameron shook his head. His jaw was rough with stubble, pride lost somewhere along the way, replaced by
exhaustion. The cracks in him showed just how rough these years had been.
"Why should | let her go?"
He was stuck, sinking deeper in his own misery, surviving only by clinging to the scraps of sweetness Nellie had
given him just enough to get by.
"Greta, do you understand? My dad never loved my mom. From the outside, we looked perfect. But inside, we
were a mess. All | ever wanted was a real home-a gentle wife, happy kids, a place | could protect, no matter
what."
"So when | found out that Nellie and | actually had that, even for a little while-do
you know how much it killsto remember how | let her down?"
"I'll never be happy again."
"I lost my wife."
