Don’t Love Me by S. Doyle

Marc
The state took me away from my mother when was I twelve and sent me to live with an uncle, who worked on some fancy estate.
That’s when I met Ash, she was ten and the daughter of the man who owned the estate. She thought I would be her new best friend but I only wanted to be left alone.
For years she was always there, always annoying me, always wanting more from me. But our roles were clear. She was the princess and I was the chauffeur’s charity case.
I told her not to fall in love with me…she didn’t listen.
