Their Secret Obsession by Pippa Moon

Chapter 104: The Ledge!

Lottie POV

I found myself utterly dumbfounded, unable to speak or move. I felt like my brain was still playing catch–up with my eyes and ears. This just couldn’t be happening; how had Knox, the cheeky chappy who loved life and everything in it, even be contemplating this? Especially when he had done nothing wrong! Why

didn’t he see that?

I watched Knox glance behind him into the darkness and followed his line of sight while Kane edged closer to Knox in what I knew was a crazy bid to get that dagger off him, a blade I knew was pure silver from the way it glistened in the light. I held my hand out to Kane to get him to halt because Knox seemed manic, and I did. not want him using the blade in frustration without meaning to and things being unsalvageable.

Out of the corner of my eye, I watched a shadow in the darkness move, a glimmer of red flashing, the shade I had seen already tonight. Twice! Once in Havoc’s eyes and once in… Astaroth!

“Yes!” She whispered, and I felt my heart twist because that meant he had. gotten his claws into my mate, but also, it meant Knox wasn’t really feeling this way, at least not truly and if I could just part him from the source of his misery, maybe I would be able to get through to him.

“Ok.” I finally announced, stepping closer to Knox, my hand sliding over Kane’s arm to get him to calm down.

“Knox, if I come up to you, will you hurt me with that thing!” I asked, nodding towards the dagger. I watched him look at it and then back at me, his eyes popping, enraged that I would ever think he would harm me. And I didn’t, not even for a second. But I had to play my role, and I had to play It convincingly.
