Thanks, Edden, I said, truly pleased that he was sending someone for Jenks not only because now I didn’t have to, but that he’d thought of Jenks at all. You’re a peach. Yeah, yeah, yeah, he said, and...
Sweet mother of chaos, he breathed. Rachel, you are indeed one of us. Have your time in the sun. You're worth the extra wait.
Sure am glad I'm not royalty, I muttered. I wouldn't want to have to bump uglies with someone I can't stand. On a regular basis. And no one else.Ow! I exclaimed, trying to yank my fingers from Trent b...
