I shake the thought away as Roan co at me like I’m a tasty meal
“How you doing, baby?”
“Good I’m ready to head out” He comes over and my body immediately reacts He’severy time I see him
My belly flutters as the low throb between s intensifies
“Me too Linnie fell asleep after one chapter She read to me first, then I took over and she was out What four-year-old wants to read Dante’s Inferno?”
I giggle I’ve groildly attached to her already, even though Roan and I have tried to keep our new situation on the do, telling her I’ our PDA off until we feel it’s the right time and place for her to understand why I’ve jumped into the deep end of their lives so quickly

“Sure thing,” I answer, pretending to be a tad irritated at his des I love about hi… And the way he acted with the electrician, I’, he’d come in the club and stab every man in there who looked at me
