Gage chuckled at that.

"What happened to her?"

Gage asked and I glared at Paula again.

His voice sounded a bit sad.

It had happened to me too when I was still married to Alex, I had remained submissive and loyal because I wanted to be by his side. I swallowed the tears and pushed back the pain. I needed to heal and I could not do so if I kept remembering the past.
