The story deepened so much with this chapter! Well done, I'm so glad that you included all this information about Ellen!
And any hope for a "brave new Ellen" remained hidden behind classical, acceptable, literature.
^Ah, I absolutely loved that sentence. Poor woman, she deserves a better life... When I read all those things about her cold, rigid husband my heart sank. :(
Our bed, this house, was a barren wasteland of human wanting, filled with forbidden secrets and unspoken wishes of a one sided love. That was the truth of it. I was alone in love, I was alone in my marriage.
