EMILY
I sat frozen, listening to footsteps cross the floor.
This is it. My end
Leo appeared at the edge of my vision. His eyes found mine and stopped my breath.
"Father." His voice was controlled, but I heard the anger underneath. "What's the problem?"
"Don't play innocent with me, boy." Hartwell's voice cut through the room like a blade. "You know exactly why I'm here."
Veronica opened her mouth to speak, her father raised one hand, silencing her without looking.
But Leo wasn't looking at them. He was looking at me, and I saw the question in his eyes.
"I'm fine," I whispered, not sure if he heard me, or why he was concerned about me in the first place.
But I couldn't help but give Veronica a disgusted look.
Damn, sis. Trying to seduce your own brother? You're worse than I though
