Everyone had gone home, but Damien stayed. It had been a long time since they faced each other, a long time since she found out he had gotten her sister pregnant. Dorothea thought it was over. It should have been over, so when he reached out with the practiced affections of an old lover, with a touch so familiar she had almost given in, it took her a minute before she could push him away. It was only a minute. It only took a minute, but Holden had seen it all.
If he had any ounce of faith in her before that day, it had all disappeared in that one minute she failed to reject Damien's advances.
