Chapter 14: Making Up Stories?
Audrey’s POV
I felt Blake’s burning gaze finally shift away, allowing me to breathe little easier. The awkwardness of the situation hit me full force at our last meeting at the LA gala, Ti tokl jantes about my supposedly perfect marriage, about how much my husband loved me. What a joke that seemed now.

“Find Thalia or your mother,” he said, his voice gentle in a way it never was with me. “I’ll come find you afterward.”
The moment Laurel’s footsteps faded away, Blake turned sharply and followed Charles. I fell into step behind them without another glance in his direction.
