Little Liar (The Web of Silence Duet, #2)

by Leigh Rivers

I close my eyes and make a wish. I wish someone would choose me.

She won’t be taken from me. I’ll make sure of it. I’ll be good. I’ll do as I’m told. I’ll be the kid they obviously needed to complete their family. Olivia. My new little sister. I couldn’t protect my mom or Rex, but I think I could protect her. I will protect her. Because she’s mine.

I think I like this guy, but I hate Base—he’s like an insane little puppy who won’t fucking stop. Images of me kicking him off a cliff keep springing to mind, and I might need to do just that.

“I’ll tail you. If anyone follows, I’ll kill them,” Tobias says.

I love you now. I loved you yesterday. When we were kids. When we were teens. When you had me thrown in jail and when I found you again. I’ll love you tomorrow. Next month. Next year. When you’re mothering my child. And when we’re old and gray, I’ll love you even more, because I’ll have had a fucking lifetime to fall more and more in love with you. Is that enough for you, Olivia? Do you need more from me?

Tobias nods to me as he leads his wife, I assume by the wedding ring on his finger,

WIFE..... Whomst!?!?!????????

His eyes land on me briefly as he moves to his father’s partner. He kisses her cheek, and from reading his lips, I learn she’s his mother. Shit. Even Tobias got the girl, though it took him thirty years.

Not me IMMEDIATELY sobbing. Daddy Mitchell deserves the fucking world.

“Keep your son away from my daughter,” Kade warns. I smirk. Because we both know that’s not going to happen.
