Chapter 91

• Nicole sat alone in her kitchen, sipping a glass of wine as the night wore on. The soft glow of the kitchen lights illuminated her face, and her eyes seemed lost in thought as she stared at the wine glass in her hand.
• As she gazed at the glass, memories began to flood her mind. She remembered the night the glass had slipped from her fingers as he pinned her against the wall. The sound of shattering glass seemed to echo in her mind as she recalled the passion that had ignited between them.
• But as she thought back on that night, Nicole realized that something had been different. It wasn't just the physical intimacy they had shared, which had been a part of their arrangement from the beginning. No, it was something more. Something that had sparked a connection between them, a connection that went beyond mere physical attraction.
