As he saw it, he’d lowered himself to come see me, so I should be thrilled, clinging to him with a sweet smile, then returning to his company and his side as the dutiful but unacknowledged

Jason sneered at me. “I just didn’t expect you to be so calculating.”
I felt no pain anymore, only a heavy suffocation. This is what it was like to face a man who couldn’t

Frolled my eyes and got up to leave, but as I brushed past him, he gripped my wrist tightly.

“Destroying a woman is simple. She’ll come back.”
