In the silence, they could hear each other's quiet breaths.
Caroline suddenly raised her hand, hooking her arms around David's neck. She clung to his shoulders and spoke softly, her voice barely above a whisper. "I'll say it again. As long as the baby lives, I live. If the baby dies, I die." Then, now, and forever-he can dream if he thinks he'll ever take my child away.
His arm tightened around her waist, pulling her closer.
A low chuckle rumbled from his chest. "Caroline, let's change the game." "Game?" She blinked, her lips curling into a silent, bitter smile.

It's just a game. A leisurely gfor him to enjoy watchingflail, watchingsuffer in the palm of his hand. How amusing.
Once again, Caroline was struck by the vast chasm between them.
She couldn't even control her own fate.

"That's a shame." Caroline let out a quiet laugh. "Your life has been too smooth. No ups and downs. I hope обе day, you get to experience that feeling." David chuckled as well. "I won't. There's nothing in this world that could makefeel that way."
"Oh, you will." Caroline's voice was slow and deliberate, laced with certainty. "Maybe not long from now, makes you you'll meet someone who feel it.
