KANE
Mona didn't hesitate.
She climbed against him, resting her cheek against his chest.
His arms wrapped around her instantly.
"You're safe."
That was all it took.
Mona broke.
The first sob escaped so quietly Kane almost missed it.
Then another.
And another.
Until her entire body shook against him.
Kane's jaw tightened.
He didn't tell her to stop crying.
Didn't tell her to calm down.
He simply held her.
"Let it out, baby."
Mona gripped his shirt.
