I get to see her at night.No deal.That's the only deal. I sleep over.She's my daughter.She's the love of my life. My heart was pumping so damn fast I needed to see her. David was searching my eyes.I let him see the truth. I needed her. That was the only way.Fine, but only you. Logan can't start sleeping over, too.He'll try.David groaned. You two, you just storm your way in-We're family to her. We took her in when you let her go. We protected her from that woman.

Malinda moved so we were eye-level. Forget the people who've hurt you. You don't have them anymore, but you have two others that'll do anything to you. Mason and Logan would move mountains for you. I see how you are with them. You love them, but you're scared to let yourself be happy. Why? Because that's when they'll leave? Is that what you think? You've got it all wrong. Those two will never leave you. She tapped my chest. Once. Twice. You. You're the one that's going to hurt them. You have that power, and you don't know it. You could rip those two apart in a second, and they're the ones who are scared of you. Not the other way around. You need to recognize the real situation.

A part of me didn't want to need anyone, miss anyone, even love anyone, It'd always been me against the world, and I didn't altogether enjoy that I was starting to lose that feeling. It usually meant that something awful was going to happen

It was the calm before the storm, and holy crap, my bones knew it was going to be the storm of my life.
