Lilith places a deck of cards on my lap. The deck of cards. “Let me guess… Cartier gave these to you…” I roll my eyes and start shuffling. “She did.” Lilith nods, leaning forward to place her empty mug onto the coffee table. “So come on, then… let’s see if I’m your Ace.” The truth is, I never needed to play this stupid fucking game with either of them to know that they were my soul mates. Our love wasn’t the kind of love that was written in the cards… It was the kind of love that burned them.
