Wren

Noelle planned to have me a surprise visit. But in the end, it wasn't a surprise anymore.

Immediately, I heard shuffling at the door right after the ring, I was already giddy. I'd been expecting her all week, but she'd been vague about when she'd actually show up. Leave it to Noelle to keep me guessing.

I opened the door to find her standing there, eyes wide, mouth open.

"Holy. Shit."

I nearly burst out laughing. Her face was morphed into shock—surprise? Awe? All of the above.

"Noelle—"

  • Signed In Silence    A Trip to Paris

    WrenThe words hung between us long after Leander left the room. It was so clear that someone paid to shut things off to mute the truth. And Leander needed to find out who.I sat there, gazing at the notes I'd handed him. It included the transfers with each date and name, from wenty years ago. It was the same week as the fire. That didn't prove anything. But it was the first thing that didn't make sense.And now, apparently, it was dangerous.My mind shifted on Raphael and his mother. The fire. The way Leander had gone cold when I'd mentioned the transfer and asked me not to tell anyone like he was afraid of what would happen if I did.I was starting to understand that this wasn't just about Leander's past. It was about something bigger. Something that had been buried for twenty years.And I'd just found the first crack.The next morning, I woke up to a note on my nightstand."There will be a business trip at Paris. It will take four days. Pack warm."It felt kinda odd. No greeting or

    WrenI was preparing to sleep when I felt my phone vibrate. I checked but didn't recognize the number. But I recognized the voice."Wren."My blood went cold. The familiar sound of his voice—the one that had once made my heart flutter—now made my stomach turn. I'd know that voice anywhere. I can't believe I spent my precious years trusting that same voice. Raphael."Don't hang up," he said quickly. "I just—I need to talk to you."I had nothing to say to him. My fingers tightened around the phone. I could feel my pulse in my throat, rapid and uneven."I heard about your marriage." His tone was disbelief dressed as concern. "I heard you married him. Leander Voss.""Is that all you wanted to say? And what does it have to do with you? How does that affect you ?""Wren—""Don't call me that." My tone became high.He was quiet for a moment. The silence stretched between us, filled with everything we'd been through. Everything he'd done."I'm worried about you," he commented. "I know you th

All of the above."Noelle—""This place is insane." She pushed past me into the penthouse. "Wren, this place is insane. Are those floor-to-ceiling windows? Is that an original painting? Did he actually—" She stopped. "Wait. Is that a piano?""Yes." I smiled, looking at how childish she looked, being curious at everything. She was spinning in circles, trying to take it all in at once."Does he play?""I don't know. I've never heard him."She spun to face me. "You've been living here for weeks, and you don't know if he plays?"

    WrenLeander came home late tonight.I was in the living room when the door opened. The clock on the wall read 11:47 PM. I'd been waiting—not consciously, but I had been. The penthouse felt different when he wasn't there. Emptier. Colder. The silence pressed against my ears like cotton, and the city lights beyond the windows seemed dimmer somehow.I told myself it was because I was still thinking about something else. The transfer. The name I didn't recognize. The mystery that was slowly unraveling.But that was a lie.I was thinking about him.He walked past me without a word.His steps were heavier than usual. His shoulders were tense. He looked like he was carrying something he'd been carrying for a very long time—something that was getting heavier with each passing year. The weight of it was visible in the way he moved, in the set of his jaw, in the shadows that clung to his eyes.He didn't go to his office this time. He didn't go to his room. He walked to the sitting room and sat

  • Signed In Silence    Celeste Voss

    Wren I was kind of nervous today. Thinking back to how things started, I feel everything has moved so fast. Within these few days, I've already met my sister-in-law. And now, Leander's mom?. I got invited to a lunch date by Leander's mom the day after Sorene left. A crisp note on heavy cream paper, delivered by courier. I opened it with confusion. I didn't know anyone who sent notes like this anymore. The paper was thick and expensive, and it screamed old-fashioned but so beautiful. I couldn't resist running my fingers over the embossed letterhead—Voss—and felt a strange flutter in my chest. "Wren— I would be delighted if you joined me for lunch tomorrow at one. The Ivy, West Street. I've already discussed it with Leander. —Celeste Voss" I stared at the note. OMG. Leander's mother. Discussed with Leander?. That was the part that made me pause. He really agreed to that. That wasn't something he did casually. Everything he did now was almost deliberate. And

  • Signed In Silence    Interesting

    WrenI didn't know much about Sorren, and trust might not come soon. But all I wanted to do now was heed her words.I also wanted to understand what Raphael had to do with it.Sorren had said the fire was arson. I understood what that meant. Someone had set it on purpose. But I didn't understand everything she'd implied. I would. One way or another, I'd figure it out.She'd also stated the same thing Leander had mentioned the last time. They never found out who did it.But how did Raphael know so much?He'd mentioned the fire like he knew something. Like he had information Leander needed. The way he'd said ask him about the fire hadn't been casual. It had been deliberate. Calculated. He'd been aiming for something.Whether it was to troll or to get under Leander's skin—that wasn't a coincidence.Not when Raphael was involved.The harsh betrayal. The way his face had changed when he'd said those words. The way Leander had gone cold when I'd repeated them. The way Sorren's expression ha
