Chapter 61

Chapter 61 Aden

The closer we get to the stable, the more Brooklyn seems to cheer up, as if she's leaving the memories of last night behind.

I can't hide the smile from my own face when I notice the change.

As much as she needs to get used to this life, needs to harden up, I was worried for her last night-truly worried that some real damage had been done.

Brooklyn is delicate. I knew it the moment I met her. And it's one of the things I like best about her, too. She's a sensitive girl, feels things keenly, more acutely than others.

Given who her father is, the Luna blood clearly runs strong in her.

But beneath that, she has a solidity to her core, a well of strength that I'm pretty sure she's not even aware of.

She's going to need that strength, though, if she's going to make it in this world.

And I'm determined to see that she does.

Because if she doesn't....

It won't be easy, but if I do one thing right, I'm going to see that through.
