She could only blink after him, taken aback by his statements. No boy with the concealed sweetness she sensed in him would kill. She knew that. Yet he\u2019d felt the need to defend himself to her anyway.

He didn\u2019t mind that they were tattered, it didn\u2019t bother him.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Summer perched on the edge of the couch, and gave him a quick once-over. “You look much better,” she commented, and stood up. Beckoning, she led him around a low half-wall, lined with bookcases, and gestured at the bed.<\/p>\n

“Helios may try to knead you, just push him away if it’s a problem.” The fluffy, Siamese-pointed cat leaped up onto the bed and watched Isaac with blue eyes. “I’ll see you in the morning, okay?”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
