QUOTE : Wait. Please.” Odette touched his hand. She wasn’t sure what to say to him, but she couldn’t bear for him to leave. “Stay with me.” He stared down at her hand and bowed his head over it. She couldn’t resist lifting her other hand to touch his hair. It was as soft as she thought it would be. When he didn’t move, she slowly wrapped a lock of it around her fingertip. There was sadness in the way his shoulders and head were bowed.
