“We should only have happy tears from now on.” He kisses my wet cheeks. He cups my face and wipes at my tears with his thumbs. It makes me laugh, then he and Eve head off, leaving Isaac and me alone. My brother hugs me next and demands I stop crying. “Welcome to it.” My brother motions for Isaac to stand, and when he does, my brother hugs him. At least with this family.” Isaac nods in agreement. Isaac is such a great man, and finally Dasher softens, seeing that too. “I’ll be forever grateful for that.”Īgain, my eyes start to burn with tears. “Thank you for watching out for them,” Isaac says to Dasher, who still hasn't taken his guard all the way down. “Trust me, I know, or you wouldn't be sitting here.” I tense up, not wanting them to fight. “I can promise you that I’m nothing like my brother.” He was sitting in a prison cell because of Paul. “We should check on the kids.”ĭasher nods. “Maybe we should leave them alone to talk.” Eve pulls on Dasher’s arm. “Right? When something involves my love life, I’m noticing it’s a little extreme.” I let out a small laugh while my brother and Isaac keep the stoic look on their faces. I don’t care if he never sees the light of day again. I knew Paul was a terrible man, but this was downright disgusting. “When I said you should start dating, I had no idea it would be this exciting,” Eve says teasingly, trying to lighten the mood in the room.Įveryone has cleared out, but I’m still somewhat in shock at everything that transpired. We all sit around the island in the kitchen sipping on the hot chocolate Eve made for us.
