Never Again Yours (Isadora and Magnus)

Chapter 30

Chapter 31

Seeing Magnus silently nursing his drink, Sammy knew he'd given tacit consent.

Truth be told, Sammy had always liked Isadora much more than Elise. He actually got along pretty well with Isadora, and over the years, he'd seen firsthand just how much she'd given up for Magnus.

Maybe, he thought, after five years of unconditional devotion, Isadora had simply spoiled Magnus rotten.
