‘I won’t tell anyone, Echo. I promise.’
Noah tucked a curl behind my ear. It had been so long since someone touched me like he did. Why did it have to be Noah Hutchins?
His dark brown eyes shifted to my covered arms. ‘You didn’t do that—did you? It was done to you?’
No one ever asked that question. They stared. They whispered. They laughed. But they never asked.
