As we sped down the highway, I couldn't help but think about Abby and the suffering she had endured. The memory of her paralysis was still fresh in my mind, and I felt a pang of sympathy for her. But my anger quickly overtook my pity, and I resolved to do whatever it takes to bring justice to her.

“This is my neighbor’s brother, Griffin, from when I was a kid. Brother Griffin, this is my boyfriend, Alaric.” Alaric was pleased with how openly she introduced him. He squatted down and said with a calm smile, “Please take care of Teacher Greene, but I’ll handle the medicine from here. It won’t be a problem.” Griffin’s smile never reached his eyes as he addressed Alaric, his tone laced with hidden contempt.

I bit my lip, and a ridiculous idea formed in my mind. Well, desperate times. “He climbed on top of her, parting her legs,” I began reading aloud from a random page, already blushing at the intense words. “He gave the soft skin of her inner thighs a gentle, deep pinch, and as he took her right breast in his hand, he…” The book was suddenly snatched from my hands.

"Let's see how far that attitude of yours really gets you, Aurelia." Melanie broke into loud, theatrical sobs, wailing that I'd ruined her face. She even demanded compensation. I scoffed. "That face?

Not yet, but to anchor it, to tether this chaos of Allistair's. In that proximity, the intensity of his devotion was palpable, maddening, impossible to ignore.
