The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven)

Chapter 661 Zane was worried Annalise might read too much into it. She could start wondering if he was still keeping his distance or worse, if he was just using her.

But saying he wanted a child? That would be a problem, too.

Annalise had once fallen from an upper floor, and the injuries were so severe that she could no longer have children. Zane didn't want to upset her by bringing it up, so after thinking it over, he decided to stay quiet.

I wasn't one to hold back on praise.
