Almost Me

Claire is the consummate performer, she does as she's told without question, with a smile that only touches her lips. 

But through the gilded cage there is always a trapped bird. 
 

Liam to some may just be a bartender, but he is the only one who sees what lies behind those beautiful emerald eyes. 

He would give anything to be the one to take away what haunts Claire. 

Will she let him in or will it be too late?
