Crippled Luna's Farewell: Half A Life Without My Alpha's Deadly Deception

Chapter 135

Before Sarah could react, Abby broke free from Cole’s grip and ran straight into her arms.

Sarah caught her easily, surprised but touched by the enthusiasm.

Abby pouted up at Sarah, her big eyes full of unspoken hope. “Come with us?”
