THE SECRET HEIRESS
I didn’t notice it at first…too focused on maintaining my composure…but then, out of the corner of my eye, I saw them.
The pictures.
They slipped from under the duvet, falling to the floor like a stack of forbidden secrets spilling into the light.
My breath caught in my throat as I stared at the photographs now scattered at her feet.
“What is this?” she asked, her voice sharp with curiosity.
I froze, my mind racing for an explanation, an excuse…anything that could undo what had just happened. My heart started to beat so loudly and fast, it drowned out the silence in the room.
Her hand moved toward the nearest photo, and I watched in horror as she picked it up.
