  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 449

    The engines went quiet at six. The hull met the pier. The crew moved above us. River light came through the porthole, grey and silver, crossing the ceiling in slow panels. She was on her side facing me. Her hair across the pillow. Her mouth softly parted in the way that belonged only to sleep. I

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 448

    Edward’s POV The hull rose and settled with the slow pull of the river. I lay in the dark with my jacket on the floor and my shoes beside it and listened to the boat. The timber. The joins. The engine below running its low faithful count. The porthole showed clouds. The moon behind it traced the

    "I fell off a bicycle when I was seven," I said. "Broke my arm. The left one." "You're afraid of the dark," he said. "You sleep with the curtain open so the street light comes in. You never told me directly but I worked it out in the third month." I set down my wine. "You remember that." "I remem

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 446

    Alicia's POV The dress arrived at four. I found the box on Elena's table. Black paper, no ribbon, his handwriting stark on the card: The water.

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 445

    Edward's POV The grey light filled the room. Alicia's leg lay across mine, heavy with sleep. Her hair spread on my shoulder, across the pillow. Her palm rested on my chest, rising and falling with my breath. The arm beneath her had gone numb hours ago. I flexed my fingers until the pins and needl

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 444

    Alicia's POV He was on the floor. I looked at him until the silence found its shape. He looked back. The full version of him. Just Edward on the floor, his eyes on mine, waiting without arranging what he was waiting for. "We never chose each other," he said. "Let me choose you." "Then start,"

    "That must have been stressful. It's admirable that you're here today despite what your family is going through."

    "No, you're not." Vivienne settled back in her chair, her eyes bright with memory. "Do you remember that summer when you were sixteen? The Harringtons' annual garden party? You and Lucy snuck away to the old gazebo, and when we found you, you were planning to run to Paris together." "We were teenag

    We settled into our seats, and immediately a server appeared with water and menus. The sight of the leather-bound menu made my stomach clench.

    "The witness may step down." I crossed the room. Back past the partition. Sat. The technician moved to the front. The screen descended from the ceiling at the far end.
