Ethan Frome 소설 & 이야기

I can’t very well tell him I was thinking about Thorne, so I lie, “I was doing the mental math for how many copies I need to make.” Ethan hums, nods, and pushes off the doorframe to walk toward me. If he didn’t already freak me out a bit, I would think he was handsome. He has the classic good looks, like a clean cut, almost cliche prince from a fairytale.

They had just reached the threshold of the outer gates, the carriage horses stomping their hooves in readiness, when a ragged, breathless figure emerged from the castle shadow. It was Ethan. His uniform was torn, his hair was disheveled, and his gray-brown eyes were wide with a desperate, chaotic pain. He didn't look like a general; he looked like a broken man watching his entire life slip through his fingers. He stopped a few paces away, his voice cracking as he shouted across the gravel. "Lane! Just tell me one thing..." Ethan panted, clutching his bruised ribs. "Did you... did you ever truly love me? Did a single day of our past mean anything to you?"

I was feeling restless and horny, the kind of deep ache that no amount of touching myself seemed to fix lately. I had just poured a glass of wine and settled on the large sectional couch in the living room when the front door suddenly opened. I sat up quickly, surprised. My stepson, Ethan, walked in, dropping his duffel bag in the hallway. He had come home early from college for the weekend, tall and athletic at twenty years old, with short brown hair, broad shoulders, and those piercing green eyes he got from his father. He was wearing a tight t-shirt that showed off his toned arms and jeans that hugged his strong thighs.

Ethan stood behind her, his arms wrapping around her waist, his chin resting on her shoulder. "Do you remember the night we met?" he asked softly. "I remember the rain," she said. "And the wolf. And you stepping out of the car like you owned the storm." "I didn't own anything," Ethan whispered. "I was a King with no country. I had money, power, land... but I was hollow. My wolf was screaming in an empty room." He turned her around to face him. "Then you fell into my chest. Muddy. Terrified. carrying another man’s child."

Chapter 38: The Nursing Wife The front door clicked open, and the heavy smell of rain and wet wool drifted into the warm, silent foyer of the mansion. Ethan leaned against the doorframe, his whole body shaking so violently that his knees knocked together. His gray suit jacket was torn at the shoulder, soaked through with muddy street water. He cradled his right arm against his chest with his left hand, his broken fingers swollen, purple, and resting at an unnatural angle. Cold sweat stood out in thick beads across his pale forehead.

“You would not dare. Do not forget, everything you eat and everything you own was given to you by me. “Half the business world in Stormbay answers to me now. If you insist on turning this ugly, do not blame me for forgetting our past.” My whole body stiffened. In that instant, my heart turned completely icy. I had seen Ethan’s ruthless side many times in business, yet I never imagined he would use that same cruelty against me. The tension in the room grew sharper by the second. Olivia suddenly cried out in panic. “Ethan, something is wrong. His asthma is acting up.” Ethan’s face changed at once. He grabbed the child and hurried toward the door without looking at me again. As he passed me, he

and warning about “fetal resonance masking.” I was sliding the note into the pocket of my dark sweater when the door creaked open. A beam of lantern light sliced across the floor, lighting up my guilty hands on the open file. I looked up. Ethan stood in the doorway, lantern held high. His face was carved from shadow and unforgiving flame. He wasn’t in night clothes—he was still fully dressed, like he’d never gone to bed. His eyes burned with cold, exhausted fury. He looked from my face to the open cabinet to the file in my hands.

"The pups are too much to handle. They have endless demands, and even the shape of their food has to be exactly the way they want it. The worst part is—they're allergic to so much food, yet they refuse to listen and insist on trying things they shouldn't eat." Before leaving, Maria gulped and asked, "How in the world did these pups grow up? Whoever raised them deserves a reward!" Ethan froze. My presence never mattered to him, since I'd always quietly gone about my tasks without complaint. I never asked for much. I was easy to please because I didn't wear expensive clothes, didn't crave rare delicacies, and never asked for pretty jewelry. All I wore were plain, cheap clothes, and I often ate

That was when Tyler understood why Ethan was so bold to come in alone. "L-Let's stay civilized," Tyler quickly stuttered. Just then, Edward's stern voice came from nearby. "Apologize to the official immediately!" Ethan glanced sideways to see Edward walking out with his cane. Edward took the main seat and scrutinized Ethan closely. "You look unfamiliar. You're not from Breeze City, are you? May I know your name?" "Ethan Rivers." Edward smiled. "That’s a good name, and you've accomplished so much at such a young age—far more than my three sons, at least."

I started to admire his features. Although many demons were good looking when they weren't in their beastly form however I found master Ethane to be different, unlike other demons who would let their hair grow so long it passes their shoulders. He preferred to cut his hair short like humans. And his eyes although they were deep brown they could change color based on his mood and wondered why it was so. I had so many questions in my mind but I couldn't ask him any. Ethane's POV I had a strange dream when I slept on her lap. I really find it strange because I don't dream often, in fact I rarely dream at all. In my dream there was a girl.
