"You're really that eager to throw me at another woman?" His voice was low, dangerous.
I stared at him, genuinely confused. What did he even mean by that?
He loved Olivia. Everyone knew it. Even after five years since her death, he never moved on. He'd never looked at me with affection. I was just a stand-in: someone he used when he needed someone who looked like his wife, nothing more. And now, he'd finally found Selena, someone who could mimic Olivia's mannerisms so well it was eerie. Shouldn't he be thrilled?
But instead of answering, his expression darkened. He turned abruptly and barked over his shoulder. "Selena, come back."
She peeked back in, surprised. Before she could ask anything, Caleb grabbed her wrist and dragged her down the hall.
"You want to see us together, Emma?" he snapped. "Fine. I'll give you what you want."
And with that, he yanked her into the study and slammed the door.
