That was so cute.
“Fox?” she asked.
“Yes, my sweet girl?”
“I really like Autumn and Brody.”
“That’s good. Because so do I.”
“Do you . . . do you ever think you’d want to get married?”
He tightened his hands on the steering wheel. “There are various reasons why I can’t do that, sweet girl.”
Hmm. Sunny guessed there would be when you were an assassin with multiple identities.
“You could still have the ceremony. Even if you don’t register your wedding.”
He shrugged. “All of that means very little to me.”
“But what about to them?”
He shot her a look. “You think they would want that?”
Sunny shrugged. “I don’t know. They’ve never said anything to me. But maybe.”
He hummed, pulling into her driveway.
Brody stirred in the backseat. “Are we there?”
“We’re at Sunny’s house. Pup, stay here with Bunny while I walk Sunny in.”
He didn’t really need to do that since Duke was already stalking out of the house. She wondered how he’d gotten home without his truck. Then she decided she didn’t want to know.
Her guilt was a huge knot in her tummy.
The Fox got out, but Duke opened her door before he even rounded the front of his vehicle.
“Hi, Daddy.”
“Hey, baby girl. Are you all right?” He undid the belt and then lifted her into his arms.
“I’m fine, Daddy. I’m so sorry for worrying you.”
“Shh. We’ll talk about that later. Fox. I appreciate you bringing her home.”
Seriously. Was she in a different universe right now?
The Fox nodded. “We need to talk.”
They did?
“About what?” she asked.
“Later.” Duke nodded back before lifting Sunny higher in his arms and walking toward the house.
“Bye, Fox! Thanks for driving me home.”
“Anytime, sweet girl.”
