"Your uncles would love to have you around."

I check the clasps on Snuggles cage to make sure they're secure before I can load her up into the backseat of my Jeep.

"I might just take you up on that. Let's see how the summer goes, okay?" I'm not sure if Toren still wants me working at his shop when Gretchen leaves. I guess I'll cross that bridge later after things settle down.

"Good enough. I just want you to know, I don't want you to move out. I know a lot of kids your age want to get out on th

    Kyra POV“Uncle Tor?” She’s standing next to the couch, gently pulling on the sleeve of my shirt.“Yes, love?”“Can you read to me?”I lower the volume on the movie I’m watching and turn to face her. She’s wearing her pajamas and holding onto an old book I used to read to her when she was little.“You know how to read, Kyra. You don’t need me to read for you anymore.”“I know, but I like to hear your voice when I fall asleep.”That puts an instant smile on my face, and now I want nothing more than to read to her. Smiling, I take the old worn book from her hands, which I have memorized from reading it to her so many times.“Well, I can’t argue with that, now can I?” I reply, winking at her.She shakes her head back and forth and smiles.“Nope.”KyraTor’s been going a bit stir crazy in the house, so today I drove him to the beach so we could walk around and get some fresh air and sun. We hold hands and walk along the edge of the water with our shoes off and watch the seagulls.“I love

    Kyra POV“Wait here.” He steps out of the truck and shuts the door before I can say anything. He saunters across the dirt parking lot to an old warehouse and bangs on a dented silver door with peeling paint. I’m not quite sure what we’re doing here, but I have a bad feeling.Soon a man opens the door and they begin to talk. Tor is doing a lot of pointing to the other side of the warehouse, and he looks pissed.Furious, actually.The man is also getting visibly agitated, shaking his head and yelling. I can’t hear what they’re saying from where I’m parked, but it definitely doesn’t look friendly.I sit in shocked silence when Tor grabs the man by the throat and literally drags him away from the door to around the side of the building, out of sight.Shit.My hand clutches the door handle ’til my knuckles hurt. I want to run out there and see what’s going on, but he told me to stay here in his most serious voice. It’s the voice he’s always used when he expects me to listen, no questions a

    T O R POVMy love,Come back to me. My heart misses you.My soul aches for you. My body needs you. My mind craves you.You Are MyForever.---Three days ago I woke up in a hospital bed with the worst headache of my life and feeling like someone put me through a high-speed blender. And that may as well have happened, because parts of my flesh appear to be pureed.I don't remElara getting hit at all, which is probably for the best because I'm feeling a rage towards the person who did this to me.When I first woke up, my mind felt empty. Blank. I couldn't think backwards, and it scared the shit out of me. I sat in the creaky bed in silence, waiting for my head to clear and for the incessant throbbing and nothingness to subside.Sydni was there, spouting her love for me, talking about coming home with me and our future together. My head swam with confusion and pain as my brain tried to fight through the curtain it was shrouded in.I nodded dully at her as she went on and on about getting

    Kyra POV I stifle a scream as my body trembles and shakes, trying not to cry but I can't hold it in, and tears start to track down my cheeks as I gulp and cling to him. Seeing Tor hurt, not knowing if he's really going to be okay, and then witnessing another woman with him is all too much. None of this should be happening. We had plans tonight. We're going to make dinner and walk Diogee and watch Kitten chase the laser light. Then he'll kiss me until I can't breathe and we'll make love and dream of when we can be together all the time."It's okay," he strokes my hair. "I know how much he means to you and how scary it all looks, but he's going to be fine. I wouldn't lie to you."No. You wouldn't. But I'm lying to you."What happened, Dad? How bad is he hurt?"He walks me down the hall to the small waiting area where we can be alone and hands me a handful of tissues from a box on the table. I dab at my eyes and blow my nose while I wait impatiently for him to answer."He's lucky, it co

    Kyra POV"I'll make Kyra some grilled cheese, and keep her busy until bedtime. I'll check on you in a little while. Okay?""I know I say this a hundred times a week, but I don't know what we'd do without you. You're always so good to us. Our other husband." She smiles at the joke and rolls over onto her side to sleep.We have this joke where Ash and Elara call me their other husband. Usually it's funny. Sometimes, it’s not.---TorHer skin is soft and dewy from the shower, inviting caresses and kisses over every curve, and I can't get enough of her. She sighs and writhes like a sultry snake beneath me, her nails digging into my back as she arches up to press her body against mine. Her lust and love for me equals mine for her, and that has made chemistry explosive between us.Rolling over onto my back, I pull her on top of me and she's already a step ahead of me, knowing exactly what I want and need. Her body moves tantalizingly slowly on top of me, like she's savoring every inch, eve

    “I didn’t kiss you, Kyra,” he finally says.I can’t see his eyes because he’s still leaning on his knees with his chin resting on his hands, so I’m left staring at the back of his head.“Yes, you did.”Does he think I imagined the most epic kiss of my life thus far?“It was an accident,” he says ag
