Bound Hearts: My Vows to My Disabled Spouse

Elyse's mind went blank, leaving her at a loss for words.

Jayden felt a pang of guilt. Before leaving, he leaned down and planted a kiss on her forehead.

"I'm sorry, I'm in the wrong this time. I'll make it up to you when I get back."

With that, Jayden changed clothes, settled back into his wheelchair, and wheeled out of the room, paying no heed to her reaction.
