Nicole’s POV

Loise’s dad was certain she wouldn’t open up easily to me, based on her relationship with past nannies.

But that wasn’t the case when she let me put her to bed after dinner—nor when I read her a bedtime story for the first time and she genuinely asked, “Why are you reading at night?”

Despite being raised by a single mother who was always trying to make ends meet, mine always found time to put me to bed with her stories.

We spent the weekend bonding over reading, and I learned to re

    Fletcher's POV Aurelie had no sign outside because the kind of people it was built for already knew where it was.I had been here four times. Twice with clients I was acquiring and once with a man I was in the process of quietly ruining, which he hadn't known at the time. The fourth time was tonight, with the Harringtons, which had its own category.Margaret was already at the table.Of course she was.She rose when I came in and opened her arms and s

    I had sent a one word text at midnight and spent the better part of the next three days pretending I hadn't.Fine. That was what I had said. Fine, like it was a minor scheduling matter, like I had agreed to cover a shift or approved a meeting request, like the word did not contain the whole complicated weight of everything I had not been able to say out loud in that study. I moved through the house with the careful energy of someone performing normalcy convincingly enough that Loise hadn't noticed anything different, which was the only metric that mattered because Loise noticed everything.Fletcher and I had not spoken about

    He found me in the study on a Thursday evening.I had gone in there for a book, genuinely, which was the kind of detail that felt important to establish because nothing about what followed was something I had planned or walked toward deliberately. I was looking for a book. That was all. Loise was in the bath down the hall, I could hear her conducting what sounded like a full naval battle involving her rubber duck and the cold tap, and I had maybe ten minutes before she called for me.Fletcher came in and closed the door.He stood with his back against it and looked at me across the room with the expression he had been wearing for the past tw

    Nicole's POVThe second time almost didn't happen.That was what I told myself afterward, sitting on the bathroom floor with my back against the cold tile and my heart doing something completely unreasonable in my chest. It almost didn't happen. It was practically an accident.This was not true. I knew it wasn't true. But I needed somewhere to put the feeling and almost an accident was the only container I had that didn't require me to examine what it meant that I had wanted it to happen since approximately the moment I told him to preten

    Nicole's POVIt became a thing without either of us deciding it would.The first night I read to her was an accident — she had been restless after dinner, moving from room to room with her drawing pad without settling, and I had found a book on the shelf in the living room and sat down on her bedroom floor with it and started reading out loud mostly because the restlessness was making me restless and I needed something to do with my hands.She had been in bed within four minutes.

    Fletcher's POVI replayed it three times before we cleared the first junction.Not the whole night. Just that part. The part where she sat on the edge of the bed with her back to me and her spine straight and said it before I could — quietly, cleanly, the way someone speaks when they have already decided and just need to say it out loud to make it real.We should pretend this never happened.I had heard those words before.
