LOGIN“Anyway,” Lilly drawls, stretching, “where were you headed just now?”“Breakfast.”“Oh good,” she claps her hands. “I’m starving, but we’re not going downstairs. We’ll just have our meal here.”I don’t argue. Just seeing Noah earlier feels like it drained every ounce of energy from my soul.After br
Sierra.“Uhm… hello?” I say, leaning back against the wall.The scene unfolding in front of me is eerily similar to yesterday except this time, Lilly is here. She’d told me before she left that she was heading to the meeting and would be back before I woke up so we could plan something to do.Appare
The words are right there on my tongue. Every reason why I would never, not in this lifetime, give her a chance... But then everything inside me freezes.I try to fight the thoughts. Try to bury them, to forget them, but they keep resurfacing like an unwanted fucking rash.My hand clenches. My heart
I clench my teeth, my hands fisting at my sides. My stare bores into her, but it does nothing to wipe the fucking smile off Juliett’s face. If anything, it only seems to encourage her because it widens.“If it isn’t the Ashthorne heiress,” Lilly drawls, folding her arms across her chest.Juliett’s s

Tears fill my eyes. Damn it. I’ve been so emotional these past few weeks. “I need time” I tell her slowly. Trying to push back my emotions. She releases a breath. “I’ll give you time if that’s what you need, but always remember that I love you. I’ve always carried you in my heart even when I thoug
“What about your car?” I ask as I start mine. I knew that he must have driven here or had his driver drive him. Rowan wasn’t the kind of man who takes cabs. “Dennis can drive my car back home…I’ll call him when I need him” he mutters just as I reverse mine and then drive off. “Home…I no longer ha
I feel Rowan tense beside me, but I don’t give a damn. What I said is the truth. Family cares for you and no one here except Letty has ever cared for me.“Can we just get back to Ethan?” Gabe asks after a while.Ethan shrugs. “I’m going to tell you a story about a girl named Nora" he begins"Nora ca
