Summary
Rebecca is not in the habit of keeping secrets from Ted. Part of their agreement when they finally admitted their feelings for each other was to be honest and not hold anything back so she feels bad keeping this from him, but she’s fairly certain he’ll be thrilled at the end result.

Summary
Hecate had heard of nothing but the new teacher since she arrived three days prior. Mildred’s incessant prattle about how modern, how innovative, and how beautiful the new teacher was was making it quite difficult for Hecate to focus on the potions she was currently working on. She doesn’t think she’s had a peaceful day in the two years since she adopted Mildred.

Summary
“Are you in any hurry?” Viola says, her tone as calm and commanding as ever. She looks at Madeline with an intensity that Madeline has seldom seen before. Only Helen ever looks at her that way.
The thought of Helen—now inexplicably successful, more gorgeous than ever, and probably back at Madeline’s house fucking Madeline’s husband—causes jealousy to claw at her guts. She doesn’t want to deal with that, not just yet.
“No, I’m not in a hurry.”
“Good,” Viola says. “Before you go, I’d like to take some time to,” her eyes rake over Madeline’s newly revitalised body, “appreciate my work.”

Summary
The dress is probably designer, probably couture, and probably very beautiful. All Madeline can see is the way it perfectly hugs her curves, the way her tits are practically spilling out of it.
Madeline had carefully curated her outfit, too; her dress’s dipping neckline shows off plenty of cleavage, just not as much as Helen’s. She had anticipated being the hottest person at the party, had planned on taunting Helen with what she’d given up. But her ex-wife has shown her up. Now she’s the one filled with longing and regret and a building heat in her core. She almost walks out of the party then and there, judgmental looks be damned.
It would’ve been better, if that’s what she had done.
OR
Madeline goes to Helen's book party after their divorce. They fight, they fuck, they yearn.
