“I had my suspicions they had something about them but, I want them to go to you," Chloé said quietly. "You helped me save Kemal. It’s the least I could do.”
Annalese smiled and unexpectedly hugged Chloé. Her grasp was tight and Chloé hugged her back, thankful that there was a bit of padding between them. Otherwise, Annalese would crunch some of Chloé's bones.
