The courtroom stood as Judge Harmon entered.

We sat when he did.

“Counsel. You may proceed with closing arguments.”

Cole rose. No papers in his hands. He stepped forward once and stopped.

“This case is not about who appears composed,” he said. “It is not about who speaks well in a room, or who c

  • 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

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 447

    "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

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 446

    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

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 444

    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 20

    Alicia's POV The coffee shop was tucked away on a side street, where people minded their business. I'd picked it on purpose—far from anywhere Edward might go, miles from the circles where someone might recognize his wife having a breakdown over coffee. Elena was already there when I walked in, sit

    Alicia's POV "Straighten your shoulders." Edward's voice cut through the leather-scented interior of the car before we'd even pulled up to the restaurant. His hand reached across the seat, fingers cold as they adjusted the collar of my navy Chanel blazer with the precision of someone arranging a p

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 21

    Edward's POV Sunlight hit my face through curtains I didn't recognize. I blinked awake, disoriented, taking in the guest room at my mother's house. The same dark wood furniture from my teenage years, the same heavy drapes, the same view of the rose garden through tall windows. Everything familiar

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 12

    Alicia's POV I'd been sitting in the living room for hours when Edward's car came into the drive, the sound muted in the late evening quiet. The afternoon had passed in a strange kind of numbness. After returning from the hospital, I went to our bedroom to put away the few things I'd packed for th
