Over four years of waiting. Over four years of longing. It had driven Sean to the edge of madness. So this time, even if he had to tie her up and drag her home, he was never letting her go again. Lily thought Sean had truly lost his mind. She could admit-James didn’t like her….

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.

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…

But he knew his grandfather’s temper. If he left now and Henry found out, he’d be throwing another heart attack performance, and James wouldn’t hear the end of it.
