Chapter 31

Diane still had not taken too kindly to Severin, but at the thought of her daughter and the sight of Severin’s sincere expression earlier, she eventually gave in and allowed him to hold her hand. As they reached the door to her home, she took out her key and opened it. Inside, Selene was sitting quietly on an old sofa while watching cartoons.
