I spent the weekend at home gaming and binging dramas.
I didn't message any of them.
Today was a key "bonding event" in the original plot for Emma and the boys.
I wasn't going to interfere.
I loosened the leash. Whether they run or stay is up to them.
A well-trained dog doesn't run.
But hey, maybe they’re wolves in disguise.
I won my game. The drama on TV was getting to the part where the male leads get into a fight and the heroine saves them.
Suddenly, my phone rang.
"Hello? Wyatt?"
My face fell. He wants me to bail him out?
What is the heroine doing? Sleeping on the job?
I drove to the police station, fuming.
All three of them were there. So was Emma.
Julian, Wyatt, and Caleb were bruised and battered.
I couldn't even look at them.
I signed the papers and led them out.
