Moment of Truth

"I... I..." Harper was frightened by Declan's gaze. She hemmed and hawed for a long time. Her eyes turned red, and her tears were about to fall.

On the side, Silas was scared by her reaction. He quickly said, "Declan, you terrified her."

Silas stepped forward to separate Declan from Harper, but he was stopped by Declan before he could get close.

This time, Declan didn't let Harper go like before.
