If I said terminating this pregnancy had never crossed my mind—
I'd be lying.
I thought about it often. I thought about it when Hector said what he said. I thought about it when I saw how dysfunctionally William's family actually is. I thought about it when Lady Tracy gave me these minor gestures that came off as warnings whenever she was with her husband. I thought about it when my mother, pressured that it was for the best. I knew she had experience and I did not.
"I know you're awake.." William said pulling me close enough to lay back into the warmth of his chest.
Yes, I was awake... I just did not want to open my eyes.
