Quotes by L.V. Pires (?)

“She was my mother, but really, she was more of a bad memory than anything else.”
― L.V. Pires, The Haunting of Whitehall Manor

0 likes

“That’s been hard because of how you raised me.” “What does that mean?” I wasn’t going to tell her about all the years of therapy I’d already gone through that taught me how not having a relationship with your mother can destroy your ability to love.”
― L.V. Pires, The Haunting of Whitehall Manor

“I knew even as a child that Seraphine was unwell. She kept me at a distance like I was a stranger, not her own child. She preferred isolation to people. Father said she hated me, but he couldn’t understand why when he loved me so much.”
― L.V. Pires, The Haunting of Whitehall Manor
