Chapter 50

• DARCY
• A strange feeling rose in me as we climbed the stairs to my bedroom. It was familiar, but it had been a long time since I felt it. The last time I’d felt this way was with Shannon after I found
• out about his first affair. He’d been weepy and apologetic. I was sad and angry, more angry than I had ever been or had been since. I’d felt like I needed to reclaim him. To erase any invisible evidence that the other woman had left on his body. He was willing to let me use him to take the edge of my anger. And at the time, it had a cleansing effect, and we were able to move on…for a little while.
