Me
That’s the spirit
Harper
Thanks for doing this with me
Me
You know there’s nothing else I’d rather be doing
Other than hanging out with you without this problem
Harper
Promise me you’ll at least try to make Maverick see things your way after everything goes down
You love him, and he’s obviously in love with you
Me
I’ll try
No, I wasn’t going to approach the love conversation.
I didn’t know if I’d keep the promise, either. I might get killed, and I might need to make a run for it.
Harper just didn’t need to know that.
Harper:
K
Come in whenever he leaves for his fights. I’ll probably still be sleeping. Sleep might help with the problem
Me:
Love you
Harper:
Love you too
There were a few messages on my family group chat, but I forced myself to ignore them.
They were going to be furious, but there was a chance I might not lose them when all of this came out. I was holding on to that.
I put my phone away and finally curled up completely with Maverick, closing my eyes. I wanted to enjoy the moment, but instead, I was out almost immediately.
CHAPTER THIRTY
bloom
Once again,we woke up when the enforcers woke us up.
Maverick kissed me and thanked me. He looked a hell of a lot better than he had the morning before because of the extra sleep. I wasn’t nearly as worried about him when he left.
At Harper’s apartment, we invited the enforcers in again.
