Lottie POV"Or us?" Kanne added as his hand slipped into mine and gave it a gentle squeeze. Looking at him, I felt my lips twitch into a small smile; even after all we had been through, this man was still willing to fight for us.Leaning my head on his shoulder, I looked to Knox, who was towing the
"I can only step in when I am asked." She answered gently, looking between us with questions of her own swimming behind her pearly irises."Asked? By whom?" Kane's brows furrowed as an uneasy silence fell over the group. I looked around, sensing the unspoken tension, wondering which one of my family
