And affectionate.” Derek’s body swayed as he kept his head turned away from us. “Yes,” I continued, reading Derek’s body language. “I think a kitten would do nicely.” “Are you sure?” Kane whispered so Derek couldn’t hear. “Yes,” I replied just as quietly. “Just look at him, Kane.” “Alright,” Kane said as he straightened up. “You’ve talked me into it. Now I want a kitty.”
