Chapter 23

A part of her was already gone.

Carol rested her forehead against Daniel’s, keeping her eyes open and locked on his. She wished he could read her mind so he could understand the life she lived, the life she longed to live. But mostly, she was glad he could not, because she didn’t want him to see all the promises she couldn’t keep, didn’t want him to know the vows she might break.

They rocked against each other—slow, subtle, deliberate movements that brought the two together in a tight fit. Carol clenched her muscles around him, holding him deep within her, as they built the tension bit by bit, stretching each second as long as they could.
