Description
❅ Simone Gerhardt x OC x Dodd Gerhardt ❅ The older woman freed her gentle grip on Letty's arms. "Rye's got someone in the guest room; needed to lay low for a few weeks," Floyd uttered. "Until then, you'll have to room with Simone." Floyd bestowed on her a careful pat to her shoulder and spoke, "go get yourself some sleep. I'll bring some breakfast up in the morning." Letty nodded gratefully and followed after Simone as they turned toward the stairs. Floyd took a hearty breath as she stared at the tile below her feet. "Carole," she called out, the girl's eyes meeting hers as she twisted back in acknowledgement. "Whatever Dodd has said--or will say--to you," she assured, hands at her side and conviction in her voice, "don't you pay him any mind. Do you understand?" "Yes, ma'am." ❅ ❅ ❅ A woman from a child: her father, a sinner. Her mother, dead. Carole Loretta Bybel could not have imagined her life any lower. Harrowed by tragedy, she is taken under the wing of an old friend of the family and finds herself an object of desire for young Simone Gerhardt and her father, Dodd. Torn between affairs, both father and daughter expect of their lover to keep their indiscretions under wraps. But she's got her own secrets to guard.
