440 In the Cabin (1)

Talia tried not to think about Marcy's situation because the mental image of that woman made her insides tighten in a bad way. However, no matter how much Talia disliked Marcy, giving her hope only to let her crash later was cruel.

Talia cringed when she realized how one tiny part of her agrees that Marcy deserved everything that was happening.

Marcy rejected her mate while coveting another man, and Talia's body tensed at the memory of Marcy's beatings and words full of spite, talking to Talia like she was dirty and unworthy to be in princess Marcy's presence.

"Ah!", Talia let out a surprised cry when Damon squeezed her knee with some force.

"Why did you do that?", she asked.

"Didn't we agree that this is our chance to disconnect and recharge? For the next three days, you can either relax or think about me."
