Mag-log inThe sound of her heels echoed softly against the floor, swallowed whole by the sterile silence of the prison hallway. Each step felt like it was slowly bringing her closer to hell, but her back stayed straight and her head stayed high. She passed rows of locked doors, steel bars and bored guards, an
Three Months Later The fabric was soft against my skin, and so breathtaking that I couldn’t take my eyes off it. I sat in front of the vanity, my hands folded in my lap and trying to breathe evenly as the stylist added one final pin to my hair. I'd always thought I'd cry on my wedding day, but I ha
I was still holding Ethan's hand when the door creaked open again. At first, I thought it was a nurse or maybe a detective back with some update about Marcus's arraignment. But then I saw a cane, and a face I hadn't expected to ever see again. Richard Jones. Ethan froze beside me as he stepped int

I rushed into the office, thinking there was an emergency. Nate hadn’t answered my calls, and I thought something had gone seriously wrong. Even though I didn’t want to leave Ethan, he told me that he understood that I had to leave, and he even walked me to the cab. I was panicking by then, thinking
Never in my entire life have I ever done anything as quickly as I did with finalizing the Holloway deal. To be completely honest, I was barely paying attention to anything that was said at the table. All I cared about was the yes, and once they signed the papers we'd come along with, everything was
“I want you,” I murmured against his lips. “I want you now.”“Then why didn’t you say so?” he chuckled, before undoing his belt buckle and pulling down his pants effortlessly. His erection sprang up immediately, and I gasped when I glanced down at it. He was so big, and for a split second, I wondere
“Are you on the pill?” he asked suddenly, and I stiffened as soon as he said that. “No,” I replied. “It’s okay,” he said. “I have some condoms back at my place.”We were speeding through traffic, and I was absolutely sure that we were going to get pulled over. But something told me Ethan wouldn’t
