You came here tonight , just like I wanted . But with Bobby and Edmund at home , I won't go back . Does that make you feel better ?

" Her soft , coaxing voice stirred something complicated inside me , and I instinctively stepped back . I couldn't believe it . Five years of marriage , and only now , after I'd already decided to leave , did she start to compromise . Even that so - called compromise felt like an insult .

In her office ? After five years of marriage , this was the first I'd heard of it . Had she planned this all along ?

' Hera , you probably don't realize it , but that little explanation just showed how little you ever truly respected me , ' I thought . I couldn't help but wonder if she had used that room to meet Edmund in secret . Was that how Bobby came into the picture ? I didn't know anything anymore .

Can you hold me ? " " We're almost there . Just hang on , " I said flatly . Once , hearing that would have thrilled me . I would have scooped her into my arms and carried her to bed without hesitation - so gentle , so doting .
