    Summary

    "I think I love you! And I mean that. With all my heart. I love you, Mercedes! Let's get married and have Crest babies!"

    "Sure, sure."
    ~*~
    “We don’t have a lot of family to share with each other, huh?”

    “I’m glad you’re my family now."

    They promised to share in each other's pain, but it's easier to soothe someone else's than to bare one's own.

    Tugging a sleeve down to hide an open wound doesn't help it heal. And Mercedes should know better than anyone else how much her and Sylvain's bodies are littered with scars, much less their hearts.

    A sequel to This One, following Mercedes's and Sylvain's journey together as the world within and beyond Castle Gautier's walls changes.
