Chapter ４２

My hand seeks David's. We enter the crowded kitchen and watch my mum explore cupboards seeking something particular. My cheeks flush as I see David scanning the kitchen. He turns to me and kisses my forehead, sensing my apprehensive look.

His warm breath touching my face and temple, making my eyelids flutter shut, recalls me. I nod in agreement.

Neme jumps up and makes a triumphant shout, interrupting my positive thoughts.

David's deadpan face makes me chuckle. .

Behind David, a sneeze Out of David's arms, I scream. My father only sees David. He ignores me and my mother.

 I'm so worried that if Dad continues gazing at David, the wolf may see it as a threat. David is unflinching. He stands solid, arms at his sides

"You?" Dad eventually asks, albeit seeming apologetic.

I sigh. Overprotective guys, I suppose.

"he’s David,my brother in law" Neme replies.
