Julius hesitated and she suspected he was searching his mind for something else he might offer, but apparently not coming up with anything, he finally lay down beside her, easing onto his back, careful not to jostle her. Marguerite waited until he was still, then rolled over and curled up against him, resting her head and arm on his chest.

“Don’t hurt yourself, you’re still healing,” Julius said with concern even as he slipped his arm out from under her to wrap it around her back.

“It doesn’t hurt anymore. It’s mostly healed I think,”

she assured him snuggling into his chest.

She stiffened in his arms, her fingers stilling. Her marriage was not a topic Marguerite enjoyed thinking about, and while she’d revealed some of it to Tiny during the first three weeks here, it wasn’t something she wanted to share with Julius. Marguerite was afraid if she revealed the humiliating details of her marriage, it might affect how Julius saw her. He might lose respect for her or see her as weak, or a victim because of how Jean Claude had controlled her. He might even begin to look at her with the same disgust Jean Claude had.

Finally, she shook her head. “I would rather not.”
