"I do not."

"You do. They get mushy."

Dad walked into the kitchen. Opened the cabinet. Pulled out the pasta pot.

"I'll help," he said.

Lily pointed her spoon at him. "You're not allowed to help. You just stand there and critique."

"That's called quality control."

"That's called being annoying.

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 449

    The engines went quiet at six. The hull met the pier. The crew moved above us. River light came through the porthole, grey and silver, crossing the ceiling in slow panels. She was on her side facing me. Her hair across the pillow. Her mouth softly parted in the way that belonged only to sleep. I

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 448

    Edward’s POV The hull rose and settled with the slow pull of the river. I lay in the dark with my jacket on the floor and my shoes beside it and listened to the boat. The timber. The joins. The engine below running its low faithful count. The porthole showed clouds. The moon behind it traced the

    "I fell off a bicycle when I was seven," I said. "Broke my arm. The left one." "You're afraid of the dark," he said. "You sleep with the curtain open so the street light comes in. You never told me directly but I worked it out in the third month." I set down my wine. "You remember that." "I remem

    Alicia's POV The dress arrived at four. I found the box on Elena's table. Black paper, no ribbon, his handwriting stark on the card: The water. Inside, folded in tissue, was the black silk from the wardrobe at the estate. The one I had left hanging there. I showered. I pinned my hair up. At seve

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 445

    Edward's POV The grey light filled the room. Alicia's leg lay across mine, heavy with sleep. Her hair spread on my shoulder, across the pillow. Her palm rested on my chest, rising and falling with my breath. The arm beneath her had gone numb hours ago. I flexed my fingers until the pins and needl

    Alicia's POV He was on the floor. I looked at him until the silence found its shape. He looked back. The full version of him. Just Edward on the floor, his eyes on mine, waiting without arranging what he was waiting for. "We never chose each other," he said. "Let me choose you." "Then start,"

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 277

    Alicia's POV Friday. I turned off the engine and sat there. The house looked exactly like it always had. The railing needed paint. The mailbox tilted slightly to the left. Mrs. Edith's wind chimes from next door made that soft metallic sound they always made. Nothing had changed. Except me. La

    Edward’s POV 9:14 a.m. I was at my desk when Leo confirmed the meeting room. Executive dining. Ten o’clock. Prepared. Coffee sat cooling by my right hand. The quarterly projections filled my screen. Singapore distribution center project. Warehouse upgrades. Bonuses I’d flagged. Before Alicia'

    Edward's POV I'd chaired rooms like this for a decade. I had never lost one so quietly. The board members filed out in clusters of two and three. Edmund paused at the door, looked back at us once, then left without a word. The glass doors hissed shut. Alicia didn't move. Neither did I. She sa

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 261

    Edward's POV The hallway was a tunnel of expensive silence. I stopped ten feet from Philip’s door, my lungs refusing to take in a full breath. I reached for my tie, my fingers clumsy and trembling. I tightened the knot until I could feel the pulse thumping against my windpipe. I checked my cuf
