Chapter 75

"Because…" She whispered, which made the butterflies in Regina's stomach flap in a wild and unexpected motion. "A woman like you doesn't deserve a life like this. You deserve so much more. Can't you see that?"
• And if that action wasn't enough to take her by surprise, Sophia's hand moving aside her scarp to reveal another dark purple and blue bruise surely did.
