His Holiday Prohibition
"I thought you said he was in Tokyo."
"He was," she said breezily. "But he flew back early. Said something about wanting a 'quiet family Christmas.' Which is weird, because usually he spends the holidays merging companies and destroying his rivals." She laughed, a bubbly sound that bounced off the cold walls. "But hey, maybe he’s having a mid-life crisis. More presents for us, right?"
My heart stopped.
He was here.
Silas King was here.
I suddenly felt like the air in the room had been sucked out by a vacuum. If I had known he was going to be physically present in the lodge, I would have thrown myself out of the moving Uber on the way up the mountain.
