LOGINLucas didn’t feel better, even though he knew he should have. Diane was very quick to suspect her stepson, calling him in a frenzy after Rodger went into surgery at the hospital. “I know you did this!” “Diane, how the hell could I have done anything? I didn’t even know Rodger was in town.” “You’
Lucas felt like he could light the whole damn world on fire, and he’d just watch it burn. He was done taking everyone else’s bullshit. He’d remained quiet, reserved, and regal. This rebellion, even if no one saw, was everything he had buried. Kit and Jones got back to Lucas in less than one day. F
“I can’t even believe you’re telling me this.” Harriet’s hands were plastered to her face, wide-eyed as Elaine relayed the conversation she’d had earlier with her husband. “I can hardly believe it myself.” Elaine’s hand instinctively moved to the necklace. “I’ve never seen Lucas take this off, Hare

She shrugged. “So be it, then.” Elaine pulled her arm out of her brother’s grasp. As strong as she was acting, she was actually feeling dizzy and exhausted. The doctor had warned her. She had to go. “Elaine.” Lucas’s emotions were chopping and changing so quickly that he couldn’t keep up. He want
“You really are pathetic, Luna,” Duke shook his head with a laugh. “None of us want you here.” “That’s not true,” Lucas interrupted. “Then why have you taken in poor, sick, dying Ayla?” Angelina asked, as if she knew exactly the answer she’d get in return. “My wife is whom I have remained loyal t
