Chapter 0378



Dane

"Stay here." I tell Neah, pulling on a shirt

"Who is it?" She asks, already climbing out of bed and heading to the closet.

"It doesn't matter. You need to stay here."

She carries on pulling on underwear as though I hadn't said anything. "I was right." She murmurs. "My gut feeling was right." She shimmy's herself into a pair of jeans. "Is it Cooper?"

"No."

"Who? Maddie. Did something happen? Has she said something?"

"It's not Maddie. Please will you just stay here until I know more."

"Our children are not even in the house."

"Athena and Sebastian won't let anything happen to them." I reassure her.

"Do they need to be kept safe? What's happened? You are not answering my question Dane!" She plants her hands on her hips and stares at me. She was trying to read my mind.

I shake my head because I knew what her reaction would be when she found out who was at the gate.

"It's Blair."

She stops what she's doing to stare at me.

'Three, two....' Aero starts counting down, preparing for Neah to snap. Instead, she sinks into the large chair, her soft blue eyes hovering on me. "Why is she here?"

"I don't know, but will you please stay here? Just until I know what she wants. Besides, you are supposed to be staying in the house."

She doesn't answer me.
