It wasn't up to him to decide whether it would work or not.

It was the first time he had ever lowered himself like this-humiliated-all because of her.

Seraphina entered her apartment, pushing the door closed behind her.

However, just before she closed the door, a hand slipped through the opening.

Orion's arm bore a glaring bruise as he pulled his hand back.
