Chapter 34: Forever This is it, the end of the trilogy. I had never planned to publish it, but I am ever so happy I have. There will be more stories with these characters, so keep me on author alert should you want them. I started writing Bound in July, 2008; posting in March, 2009. It's somehow appropriate to end in the same month, three years later. |
