Quiet Certainty

KELLAN’S POV

After we talked, we headed inside and she bathed and slept, not bothering to eat again at all. I cuddled her, but she was so stiff and I knew that the fact she saw Gemma dented the peace we were practically basking in.

I didn’t give her a chance to argue the next morning. The second she reached for her keys to drive to work, I took them from her hand and set them back on the counter.
