CRUEL ROMANCE: MR. LANGSTON'S OBSESSION
When I'm done, I knock softly on the door, and Blaze opens it immediately.
He tells me to sit on the floor with my back to the wall, which I do without any argument.
The cold seeps through my bare skin instantly, making me shiver.
Blaze walks toward me carrying a small wooden box, and I immediately recognize it. It's where I used to keep my jewelry, including the pieces I'd been wearing the day I escaped, and most importantly, my wedding ring.
He opens the box carefully and takes out the ring. The diamond shines with striking brilliance, reflecting a complicated history of what might have once been beautiful moments mixed with difficult challenges.
