He pondered it for a moment then nodded. “She had a lot on her plate today.”
“Awe, little Princess Evanna,” Willow, cooed, letting go of the chief to lift her hands in front of her, forming a ball. “She was like this when I met her. Such a pretty baby.” Swaying on her feet, she clung to Kingston again. “I was only a kid then…” she continued reminiscing, with a pout, but her eyes suddenly widened. “I dropped her once. Shh.” She pressed a finger to her mouth, squishing her nose in the process.
“We’ll never tell,” I vowed, trying my best not to laugh after Kingston scowled, promising bloody murder if we made fun of her.
