by Mindy Hayes

“Don’t worry about that yet. Stay with me. Focus on me. There’s nothing else but us. It’s you and me. Always you and me.”

“There’s still air in your lungs and a beat in your heart. Don’t disappear on me now, Goldie. Don’t disappear.”

You escaped one prison to enter another. So. You’re free, Maeve.”
