The Third Party Novels & Stories

What would Bolton's death do to Melody's remaining string of sanity? A slight ping of guilt washed over Cassie. At the end of the day, the poor woman lost her abusive husband and brother in-law. Sure, the Thomas brothers were douches, but they were still Melody's family, and it was clear in Cassie's dream that Melody and Thomas were close.
