“The house wasn’t like this e bought it Since it was built in 1945, eren’t surprised to find it chopped up with little rooms and hallways I tore out a lot of walls and took it back to the studs so that I could design it the way I wanted”

“Woouldn’t have a clue on how to do that, Lucas” Nic was just as impressed with Phoebe’s husband as he was

“Let’s get a closer look at the kitchen” Lucas led them past the massive island in the center of the space The pride he felt for this house was easy to understand “I chose black quartz to accent the white wooden cabinets”

Touring the rest of the house, Sylas liked how spacious the bedrooms and baths were

“You want to flip for the bedrooht out a quarter

“They are identical in size, so it doesn’t matter to me You pick the one you like and I’ll take the other”

“Fine I’ll take the one closest to the kitchen”

“Great” That gave him the bedroom with the best view of the lake But did it even matter? He didn’t expect Nic to stick around in this house for very long

When they walked back into the main room, they sao men, one in a sheriff’s uniform

“Let uys This is Mitchell, the musician in the family”

“Nice to meet you, fellas” Mitchell was tall and his eyes were unusual The left one was blue and the right one brown

Lucas introduced the other man “And this is our eldest brother, Sheriff Jason Wolfe”

“Pleasure, guys” Jason shook his and Nic’s hands “Mitchell and I wanted to drop by and tell you how glad we are that you will be working with Phoebe Since we’re expecting twins, ant her to get plenty of rest”

“That’s hard to do with our wife, bro, as you know,” Lucas said

“Very hard”
