Story
The Fields took Noelle in at six, and to Daniel she was little more than a 'blood bag'. A boyhood word of thanks from him won her heart, so Noelle, the Ellis family's heiress, chose to stay. Married, she keeps his house while he looks straight through her, and Jennive's return makes him colder still. After her crash, he refuses to give her blood, and Noelle finally divorces him.
