Chapter 66

• JUDY’S POV
• The thoughts about Chris lingered in my mind long after our date. His suggestion to be a "normal couple" stirred something within me—a cautious hope that we could rebuild what had been broken.
• I wanted to believe him, to believe in us, but doubt remained, casting a shadow over my decision. The sadomasochistic agreement, a cryptic part of Chris’ life, weighed heavily on my mind. It represented more than just a document; it was a symbol of the unknown between us, a barrier that kept me from fully understanding him.
