Your posture, specifically." He said.They all groaned, but they knew better than to argue. The academy was strict, and they had to comply. Bailey sat up straight, trying to smooth out her hair, and glanced over at her friend. She looked like she

I asked, trying to sound carefree despite the terrible things his sons just did to me ."Gisele, my dear, how are you? Is everything going well at school?"
