Adrian
“I won’t let this nobody take what is mine, Adrian,” Valarie’s icy voice greeted us as we stepped out of the car.
I saw Lily instinctively hide behind Freya’s legs. As we approached, she kept peeking at Valerie like she was an intruder.
I felt the urge to punch something. Anything. So I shoved a clenched fist into my trouser pocket. My jaw clenched even tighter when Lily buried her face behind Freya’s thighs.
“You just don’t listen, do you?” I take a step closer.
“You’re the one who needs to listen, Adrian. You can’t hide the fact that we are still bound by fate,” Valerie snapped her gaze to Lily. “She’s my daughter. You shouldn’t be keeping us apart.”
“You need to leave,” Freya hissed before I could talk. She gently caressed Lily’s hair. “This is our home now.”
