What? Ihy was he bringing up that imaginary classmate again? He still didn’t know the “old classmate was something she’d made up on the spot. There was no such person- so of course, there was no progress to speak of. – But if she told him the truth, he might worry she was planning to…

Part of her wanted to reach out and embrace Luna. But reason pulled her back sharply. Luna wasn’t that kind, loving foster mother anymore. She knew Mathilda was their biological daughter. Of course they loved her more. That was only natural. Lily had even once resolved to care for Mathilda herself, knowing how long she’d…

Once James finished collecting the pearls, his gaze fell upon Lily-her whole face hidden tightly under the blanket. He frowned instinctively, worried she might suffocate like that. But then, the memory of pulling that same blanket off her… the bracelet snapping… his wild, unrestrained hunger as he tore through all restraint-it came rushing back. Restraints…

“How dare you say that about Lizzy!” Simon couldn’t help feeling sour hearing James call Lily his wife. Even though he didn’t particularly like her, he didn’t mind the idea of being set up with her. Now, watching tears pool in Elsa’s eyes and blood stain her lips, he quickly added, “I’m begging you-let Wendy…

It melted into him, seeping straight into his bones. And it wasn’t enough. Still kissing him, Lily felt the chill retreat. But she wanted more. She groped blindly, her fingers sliding across his chest and sides, tugging at his clothes like she wanted to tear away everything in her way-like she needed him to burn,…

The nurse, clearly intimidated by James’ presence, didn’t need to be told twice. She practically fled the room. James regretted his offer the moment it left his lips. But he had already said it. Backing out now would only make things more awkward. Expression cold, he sat at the edge of the bed and prepared…

“James…” Lily could tell he didn’t want to deal with her. But the doctor would be making rounds in the morning, and she had no change of clothes-just the one ruined hospital gown. If a nurse or doctor came in and saw the state she was in, how would she explain it? Say she ripped…

He wasn’t giving up that easily. Before John could speak again, Elsa’s hoarse, tear-laced voice cut through the room. “John, Simon… when my mom called me, she really sounded awful.
