“You know the story in the Bible?', Jacob asked suddenly, still reading the blank ceiling. 'The one with the king and the two women fighting over the baby?'

'Sure. King Solomon.'

'That's right. King Solomon.' he repeated. 'And he said, cut the kid in half... but it was only a test. Just to see who would give-up their share to protect it.'

'Yeah. I remember.'

He looked back at my face. 'I'm not going to cut you in half anymore, Bella.”
