Sexy Behind The Mask Chapter Two Hundred-Sixty-Three
"I know, baby, you don't have to know," Faith said firmly. "Not right now. Right now, you just need time to process. To feel whatever, you're feeling without judging yourself for it.""I'm so angry." The words burst out of Emma. "I'm so angry I can barely breathe. But I'm also… I'm so relieved. He's alive. He's not dead. I didn't lose him. Except I did lose him because he's been lying to me for three months, and how do I trust him again? How do I look at him without seeing… without remembering? God, I sound crazy—"She couldn't finish. Couldn't put into words the tangle of emotions choking her."You take it one day at a time," Faith said. "One hour at a time if you need to. You feel what you feel. You process what happened. And you don't let anyone tell you how you should be reacting. Not Daniel, not us, not anyone. You are the one this affects the most, and we will stand by any decision you…" She gave Gray a look when he started to protest. "Any decision you make.""I told him to lea

Emma sat in the back of Grayson's car, staring at nothing. They had left Lauren's wedding soon after Daniel was shown the door. Grayson wouldn't let her drive, and Honey had insisted on coming with them. She knew she should feel guilty about what happened at the wedding, but the shock still outweighed the guilt. She was sure that would come.Honey was beside her, holding her hand, not saying anything. Just being there. Which was good because Emma couldn't have formed words if she'd tried.Daniel was alive.The thought kept circling through her head, over and over, like a record on repeat. Daniel was alive. He'd been alive for three months while she'd fallen apart. While she'd grieved him. While she'd wanted to die because living without him was too hard. She had almost done it too. No one knew that, but she had. She was ashamed to even think about it now, but her grief had been that intense. That soul-destroying. She knew she sounded pathetic, but she had loved Daniel with everything

Daniel's face went white."How could you do that to me, the woman you claim to love? I wanted to die, and I even thought about it." Emma's voice was rising now, the emotion finally breaking through. "Because you were gone and I didn't know how to exist in a world where you weren't in it. I went home that day and I couldn't breathe. For weeks, I couldn't breathe. I couldn't eat. I couldn't sleep. I couldn't do anything except exist, and even that was almost too much.""I know." Daniel took a step forward. Grayson immediately blocked him. "I know what I put you through. I know it was—""You don't know shit." Emma was standing now. Maggie moved back to give her space. "You weren't there. You weren't the one who had to learn how to live without you. Who had to figure out how to wake up every morning when the person you loved most in the world was gone. Who had to—" Her voice broke completely. "You let me bury you. It was so cruel what you put me through. I have lived a half-life.""I didn

Emma woke to voices arguing.Her head felt like it was stuffed with cotton, her body heavy and disconnected. She was lying on something soft, a couch maybe, no it was a bed, and there were people nearby. Too many people. Their voices overlapped, some angry, some confused, all of them too loud."—need to give her space—""—supposed to be dead, you were declared KIA—""—calm down, let him explain—""—three months, you bastard, three fucking months—"That last voice was Grayson's. Emma forced her eyes open, blinking against the light. She was in a bedroom, Honey and Grayson's guest room, she realized. She had spent more than one night here after… after…The voices were coming from the doorway. Grayson stood there, his body blocking someone from entering. Beyond him, she could see faces, Wyatt, Nate, all of them crowded in the hallway.And Daniel.Daniel was there, trying to push past Grayson, his face desperate.This wasn't a dream.Emma sat up too fast, the room tilting sideways.

Lauren stood in front of the full-length mirror in Honey's guest room, staring at her reflection.The dress was simple. Ivory lace over silk, tea-length, fitted at the waist but not too tight. Elegant without being ostentatious. Exactly what she'd wanted. She had wanted simple.Her hair was down in soft waves, a few pieces pinned back with small pearl clips. Minimal makeup, just enough to look polished without looking overdone. In the photos, she wanted to look like her."You look beautiful," Honey said from behind her.Lauren turned. Honey and Maggie stood in the doorway, both of them already dressed, Honey in deep green, Maggie in navy blue. Her bridesmaids. Her best friends. The women who'd stood by her through everything. She'd let the women pick their own dresses and colors."I look really terrified," Lauren said honestly."You look like a bride," Maggie corrected, crossing to adjust Lauren's necklace. A simple pendant that had belonged to her grandmother. Something old. "Having

The next seventy-two hours passed in a blur.Lauren barely left her apartment. Barely left her bed. Wyatt stayed with her constantly. He only answered any important calls that came in. He was there when the nightmares came, and they came every time she closed her eyes.Liam's face. The gunshot. The blood. Over and over and over.Honey came by on the second day, bringing food Lauren didn't eat and sitting beside her bed, just holding her hand. Not saying anything. Just being present.Maggie came by that evening, checked her vitals, examined her throat, which was now a spectacular purple bruise. Prescribed sleeping pills that Lauren refused to take because she was afraid of what she'd see in deeper sleep.Nate and Prue brought dinner on the third day. They sat with them in the living room while Lauren picked at pasta and tried to pretend she was okay."The media's having a field day," Nate said, his voice careful. "Actress shoots stalker in self-defense. Stalker turns out to be serial k

The taxi driver, a weathered man with kind eyes, spoke broken English but understood her gestures well enough when she pointed to the address she'd written on a scrap of paper. The community kitchen sat tucked between a medical clinic and a small church, its corrugated metal roof gleaming under the

"In the guest room, yeah." Defensiveness crept into Nate's tone. "Look, I know Trish can be intense, but she's family. She's been through everything with me."Grayson nodded, not wanting to push too hard. "I understand. I just... the timing of all this is strange. The messages seem… well, they’re j

Honey almost choked. Her father's casual comment about Grayson being a better match hit uncomfortably close to recent developments in her life. If only he knew about her encounters with Sir at The Velvet Room or worse, that she'd briefly mistaken Grayson for a cheater at the restaurant. She and Gra

His chest was magnificent, broad and powerful, with just the right amount of dark hair tapering down toward the waistband of his pants. Honey couldn't tear her eyes away as he unbuckled his belt and removed it, the leather making a soft hissing sound as it slid through the belt loops."Like what you
