Just as the words left her mouth, the door suddenly burst open with a loud bang, slamming against the wall so hard it echoed through the room.

Lillian was still on the phone when the sound startled her into silence,

The moment her gaze met Ethan’s stormy eyes, her mind went completely blank.

Ethan’s gaze was filled with a sharp, suffocating rage, the kind that swallows everything whole.
