Unbuttoned
“It kept just . . . going on while Carly was trying to wallow in misery. She wanted to curl up into a little ball and wail for a week straight, but she couldn’t. She had to finalize all the details for Ride for Hope and see to a million other civic duties.
She had to be on show, which she’d never minded before, because she’d never fully grasped just how “on show” she was. Had never truly understood everything she was hiding so she could put on a public face that would seem acceptable, and wo...uldn’t make waves or any controversy.
Now she saw it. Now she felt the chains tightening around her wrists.
Lucas had made her feel free. Had helped her find bits of herself she’d never known had existed.
And the first moment those parts of herself had been exposed to someone else, she’d curled back in on herself. Buttoned back up. Stepped into her cell.
She’d been back in it for over a week now.MoreLess
