LOGIN“Anyway,” Lilly drawls, stretching, “where were you headed just now?”“Breakfast.”“Oh good,” she claps her hands. “I’m starving, but we’re not going downstairs. We’ll just have our meal here.”I don’t argue. Just seeing Noah earlier feels like it drained every ounce of energy from my soul.After br
Sierra.“Uhm… hello?” I say, leaning back against the wall.The scene unfolding in front of me is eerily similar to yesterday except this time, Lilly is here. She’d told me before she left that she was heading to the meeting and would be back before I woke up so we could plan something to do.Appare
The words are right there on my tongue. Every reason why I would never, not in this lifetime, give her a chance... But then everything inside me freezes.I try to fight the thoughts. Try to bury them, to forget them, but they keep resurfacing like an unwanted fucking rash.My hand clenches. My heart
I clench my teeth, my hands fisting at my sides. My stare bores into her, but it does nothing to wipe the fucking smile off Juliett’s face. If anything, it only seems to encourage her because it widens.“If it isn’t the Ashthorne heiress,” Lilly drawls, folding her arms across her chest.Juliett’s s

“My search led me to you. I knew I had to take you out. If you didn’t exist, then the clause was null and void. I came here and after asking about you, I got a whole lot of information. Given how people hated you including your husband and family, I thought I would be doing them a favour. After all,
All I had to do was to take a step forward. Just one step and everything will end. There won’t be any more pain, or sadness or heartache. I would be free of the constant darkness that was drowning me. I hear a car in the distance, but I don’t turn. I still don’t turn when a door slams. “What the h
I nod my head. “I was always jealous of the bond you have with Noah. I still am” he confesses. I lift my head in shock. “Really?” I still can’t believe that Rowan was right now sitting on the bathroom floor with me.
