Chapter 256

Did she never miss Elijah after all these years?

With a soft sigh, Elysia gently kissed the little one's forehead, tucked him in, turned off the bedside lamp, and tiptoed out of the room.

The bathroom light was on, the sound of running water filling the air.

Tarquin was taking a shower.

Elysia closed the door behind her and locked it from the inside.
