Hailey had a starry look as she stared at him.On the other hand, Penelope was wary of him. It was all just too convenient for him to step out of the shadows and be a knight in shining armor.“You don’t trust me yet?” Boyles inquired tilting his head slightly to the side.Penelope shrugged in response, not wanting to engage him. The less they spoke, the better for him. He was a handsome man and looked to have his c harms but his piercing gaze held a lot of emotions.“I will need some details.

What happened, then?” He probed. “Don’t think I didn’t notice.” Francine shifted on his laps. “It is nothing to worry about, babe.” She hadn’t yet fully grasped the levity of the situation herself.

She paused and climbed off to open the door."Penelope." Killian lazily dragged while leaning his weight on the door frame. A breath of mint and something she couldn't lay her hands on hit her."Killian?" It was very late into the night. She had expected that he would be asleep at the time. "Are you okay?"He shrugged and smiled, showing his dimples that she never thought existed."You should get some sleep." Penelope urged.Killian shook his head. "No. I wanted to see you, Penelope."

He dialled the contact that sent the message.‘The number you have dialled does not exist,” The machine answered.“Damn it!” He cussed. The number had just texted him. He hurled his phone at the wall.
