Twisted Bonds 소설 & 이야기

“Emma isn’t stupid, Dad. She’ll see right through me. Especially now—she’s grieving. She’s got walls up, and she won’t let me in easily.” “That’s precisely why now is the time.” His father’s tone softened, but his gaze remained steely, unwavering. “Use her vulnerability, James. Make her see you as someone she can depend on. Someone she can trust.” A knot formed in James’s stomach. He knew his father was ruthless, but to exploit Emma’s grief so blatantly… it was a new low. He exhaled heavily. “I don’t know if I can do this.” Senator Reynolds’ gaze turned icy. “You don’t have a choice, son. If we don’t secure her backing, everything we’ve worked for will fall apart.

Well, I know his name now, I think to myself. "I know a little about angels, but I know more about witches. The witch is using the bond that is created between them to cause pain, but I take it that they are not marked yet, am I correct?" He says while looking toward Luca and me. I simply give them a shake of my head no.

He apologises,his minty breath fanning my face. I smile genuinely and as if understanding the message,he grabs my waist and kisses me again, deeply and passionately.
