🌶️🌶️/5
Being with Nick made me feel free. His confidence and easy grace were contagious. I could just be myself. Do whatever I wanted. Say whatever I wanted. This Emmeline was relaxed. Happy.
“You asked me back then if I believed in fate. I didn’t until I met you. And I’ve spent nine years thinking I’d never see your face again. But fate brought you back into my life and I’m not going to mess it up again.”
Without hesitation, he had defended me to the one person who had always made me feel like I was less.
“I’d do just about anything to see that look on your face every day.”

🍀 Epilogue
🚩 Language used my FMC towards another FC — slut, bitch — condones & perpetuates this derogatory & dehumanising treatment of women, by all genders.
