I walk away.The man was destined to die at the hands of Rowan Priest, my former husband.Getting around eight months pregnant has gotten a lot harder than it should. I get in the car.“What’s the plan now?” Leo asks.Leo Hunter is my real husband. Red Welling was easy to manipulate. He truly believed he was the heir to the Priest empire. He was nothing more than a servant’s child, he truly believed his father was the heir.“Now we go into hiding.
