Chains Of The Heart Unraveled
Chapter TenI step outside the ballroom, air stinging against my skin. The chill wraps around me, sharper than the hum in my stomach. My heels click on the pavement, echoing through the night, with every step away from the music and laughter that sound like mockery of my pain.I wrap my arms around myself, trying to ward off the cold, but it's no use. The freezing wind isn't outside but inside me, solidifying my heart and making my thoughts leaden and slow. I came tonight to support Noah, to be with him. Instead, I feel like an afterthought, a shadow in his life.I look down at my phone; the screen springs to life as I check my messages. Nothing. Not one call, not one message. My chest tightens. How did I become this person, this woman who waits, who hopes, who aches for scraps of attention from the man she loves?I walk aimlessly, heels clicking on the ground, the long shadows extending from the streetlights. I pause at the curb, clutching my handbag in one hand. The thought strikes

Chapter NineNoah looks at me, and for a moment, I see the flash of something-fear? Guilt? I don't know. "It's not what you think, Rachel," he says rapidly, but I can hear the uncertainty behind his words."Really?" I say, my voice is a lot sharper than I had meant it to be. "What is it, then?"Isabella's smile widens, and there's something in her eyes that's almost predatory. "I didn't mean to intrude, but Noah and I have quite a history. It's understandable you'd be curious."I refuse to break her gaze. "I am not being curious about anything. I just want to know what you both are talking about.Noah steps between us, clearly attempting to diffuse the tension. "Let's not make this awkward. Isabella and I were just colleagues. There's nothing more to it.""Of course," Isabella echoes, but there's a hint of a dare in her tone. "But you know, Rachel, sometimes the past has a way of resurfacing when you least expect it.I feel my heart racing, a mix of anger and fear swarming in. "Is tha

Chapter EightNoah drives us to the hotel where the party is going to be, and the city lights sparkle like diamonds. I sit in the passenger seat, outwardly calm, but my stomach does flips of anticipation and apprehension. Noah has been off, distant a lot lately, and mentioning Isabella Stone—his old partner—made me uneasy.I look sideways at him, registering the way his jaw clenches as he fixes his gaze on the road. There's a thread of an intensity to his mood that I just can't read. It's almost as if he's practicing for something, bracing himself for an encounter that means more than he's letting on."Are you okay?" I ask, breaking the silence that stretches between us like pulled wire.He nods, but the flicker of uncertainty in his eyes says otherwise. "Yeah, just thinking about the presentation tonight.""Is that all?" I probe, trying to read his expression. "You seem. tense."He looks over at me, surprise flickering in his eyes. "It's just Isabella. I haven't seen her in years. I'

.Chapter SevenI pace back and forth in the bedroom, wringing my hands together. My heart thumps loudly in my chest as the mixture of fear and thrill pounds through me. I check the time again; I'm meeting Elvis soon. The thought causes a flush of heat to my cheeks. It's been so long since I've done anything that feels so. for me.I look into the mirror, smoothing out my dress, which I picked very carefully today. It's simple but fits well, bringing out some color in my face. I run a brush through my hair one last time and take a shaky breath. This is not wrong, I told myself. I'm just meeting a friend. But in my heart of hearts, I knew that was the surface thought.My cell phone vibrates, and I practically jump. It's Elvis, saying, "I'm here. Take your time."He's always been patient, has always been so understanding. I snatch my purse and leave the house, making sure to shut the door quietly. Noah's gone for hours; there's just no way he'll ever know. Yet my heart pounds harder with
