Lord of Regrets
“Natasha was exhausted, sleep impossible with the terror that gripped her.
There was Marcus, just across town. There, also, was the great unknown. What did he want? She could not keep avoiding him forever. At some point, she would either need to run or face him. Yet all she wanted to do was hide, make time still until he left town, until her future was decided.
There had been moments, early on during the last five years, when she had wanted to die, if only to put the memory of their love... behind her. Then there had been times when she wanted to keep that memory tight, to never forget that she had loved him, that she had loved. But mostly, she lived in shadow, her emotions––other than her love for her daughter––stagnant. It was as though after five brief months of a newly awakened body and awareness of all the carnal pleasures life had to offer, she had become unsexed.
But here was Marcus, sending her into turmoil, into the wild extremes of emotions she hadn’t felt in years.MoreLess
