I liked this VERY much. I loved this line: "I owed my debts to him; she belonged to someone else and that was not my responsibility." - How Constance recognized that Vi was supposed to be there and that maybe she would bring Tate the happiness denied him in life (and afterlife). Your Constance voice is really wonderful.

Your Constance is spot on. I like how she's protective of the house and her boys even if it's not always apparent that she is. I also like how she recognizes that she owes Tate something. Nicely done.

This was great. I love the voice you gave Constance. I found it way interesting that she would sense the darkness in Violet and then thought that she owed Tate some happiness. I definitely think she owes him something. And that last line: "It'll never be yours, but you'll belong to it..." reminded me of the last line in the song Hotel California. It was a perfect way to describe what happens in there. Kudos.

Thank you Mystery Author!

I absolutely love my story. Constance has always been one of my favorite characters (a matter of fact I'm married to a male version of Constance).

"I'm a product of the old south, and we're proactive bitches."- Love this line and it's so true!

The whole baking cookie scene between Addie and her was so sweet. That was one of my favorite scenes in the season as well.

I'm glad that Tate finally got a chance to be happy at least in his afterlife. Loved that you showed some of Constance's redeeming qualities.

I'm so happy to finally come across a Constance POV story. This was very nicely written and a joy to read. Thank you.
