Thak you for reading and voting! Keep in mind that in the first book, it did take Charlie a while to mature.
Charlie's P.O.V.I was nervous to see Killian, not because we were fighting, but because I was embarrassed by my behavior. I still stood by my anger at him for trying to end our mother's life without telling me he would do it first and not giving me the chance to say goodbye. Saying a decision need
"You feel it, don't you? It's not right. Something is not right." Natalie said, but she was turned away from me. I looked at Damien as he pulled his hand away from my leg and examined the room as if expecting an enemy to pop out and attack someone. But to attack in such a concentrated place was stu

Charlie's P.O.V.Having Killian away was nice. Each time I went into his office to help with some of the work, it was calm and peaceful. I got more done on my own than I would have with others here, and it gave me a chance to teach Damien a few things. He asked me to go over it with him, not that h
"He could at least tell me he's okay every few days."It was a valid point because I had felt that way at first, too. I had spoken to my mother about it during my visits when she had been locked up in a room under suicide watch, but she didn't care. She had told me to expect the men to always cause
