It was like I was being scolded. I couldn’t help the way my brain automatically tried figuring things out. It wasn’t my fault that I naturally looked for answers. “You liked it when I found my confidence to kill.” I mumble. We had sex in the forest that day.”I know, but if I lose you over it….” He shakes his head. “I just can’t lose you or the twins, okay.”I nod and try to clear my head as he stretches back up to full height, turning his attention to the training.Lying myself back on the fake grass, I stare up at the blue sky. Dane was making the most of training this morning as a storm was supposed to be coming in tonight.I hated storms, the sharp cracks of lightning always reminded me of being hit, particularly whipped. I probably won’t sleep later. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ ƒindNoᴠᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.Mallory comes bounding up to us after training. Her skin shiny from the sweat. She wipes her forehead, flinging the beads of sweat onto the grass, “So, how did I do?””As well as what I expected.”She smiles at him. “So I got the job, right?”Dane cocks an eyebrow at her in confusion.”To protect Neah, right?””I don’t need your protection!” I snap and Danes hand wraps around my wrist as he gives me a warning glare to calm down.”What Neah means to say is that she doesn’t need protection right now. She has me.” He smiles at her”I thought this was why you wanted me to train?” She scoffs, “To test my skills so you knew I could watch her.”

I said to test you while I watch Neah.” Dane tells her. “I am grateful that you want to offer your services, but right now, Neah isn’t leaving my side.” There is annoyance in her brown eyes, but I’m not sure if Dane saw it. If he did, he kept his face unreadable.”Oh” she sighs. “I just wanted to help, you let Damien help.””Damien didn’t give me much of a choice.” Dane murmurs without looking at her. His eyes are too busy scanning the people still training.”What does that mean?” Mallory asks”It doesn’t matter.”But I was curious too, what did he mean? As far as I was aware, Damien had just started planting himself in locations near me. I will have to ask him later when we are alone. Mallory turns her head to me. “I was just trying to help.”I don’t respond. Because the words ready to come out of my mouth will have Dane worrying. Instead I force the words back down my throat and ask if he has any more snacks. “Not on me. We are done anyway, let’s go.”We turn away from Mallory and Dane drapes an arm around my shoulder. “What are you up to?” I murmur as we leave the grounds.”Just working through something. Until I know more, all you need to do is focus on growing my sons.””No secrets.” I mutter as I’m kicked in the bladder.”It’s not a secret, it’s a theory.””What is that supposed to mean?”He stops me and spins me around to look at him, encasing my hands with his. “I am working on a few ideas, for now it is best that only I know. If the time comes that you need to know, I will tell you.” “Does anyone else know?”
He shakes his head at me. There’s a strange glint to his crimson eyes. The same look he had given me back at Moonshine that first day. A knowing look. A plan hovered beneath the surface.I might have been scared once, even tried to hide away, but whatever he was up to, he was doing it for us and I had to trust that.
