Hot Chapters

1 RAINA

My body ached in ways I couldn't describe, and in places I couldn't name. My skin was sticky with perspiration and my muscles were trembling from hours in labor. The feeling of motherhood—for however briefly I'd just come into it—was so surreal, that I could hardly believe it. Despite having nine long months to prepare my mind, nothing could have truly prepared me for the actual feeling.

2 ALEXANDER

Five years later. Exhaustion was eating me alive— gnawing at me day after day. I'd endured it for five years— five goddamn years of this misery, and it wasn’t letting up. No matter what I did, or how much I tried to drown myself in work or distractions, it lingered.

3 ALEXANDER

Watching Eliza practically bursting with joy made me sick. Her being over the moon— like this wedding was a dream come true, was something I'd expected, but it was still annoying to behold. I didn’t want this marriage—not now, not ever—but she was too blind to see that, of course. She never did. To her, this was the beginning of some grand fairytale. But to me, it was a burden.

5 RAINA

I couldn’t believe the nerve—the audacity he had to corner me like this. The moment I saw Alexander’s cold, piercing gaze, I knew nothing good could come from whatever words he had ready for me. I tried to slip away unnoticed, to avoid this exact situation, but his grip on my arm was unyielding, almost painful.

6 ALEXANDER

I stood there, arms folded and jaw set, bracing myself for what I knew was coming. I was certain of her answer, and I couldn’t deny that I’d half-hoped for it. She was going to say no. She had every reason to turn me down and refuse any connection between us, especially after the mess my family had made of the evening.
