Harley twists in my lap, looking up at me with tear-filled eyes. She’s so broken, but she’s never looked more beautiful than she does right now. I look forward to putting her back together again, adding my pieces with hers.
Tucking my thumb under her chin I focus on her.
“He locked you away, lied to the club. He killed your mother, Harley. He went rogue and needed to be taken care of the Shadow Keepers’ way. The memories you have of your dad are from when you were a kid, not the man that lays over there now.”
Her tongue sweeps out, taking in a salty tear. Her head shaking back and forth as she looks away from the building.
“I knew he killed my mother, I just… I didn’t want to believe it.” Her words catch in her throat. I knew because I heard him talking about it with my dad when I was younger, but how does she know?
“How did you know?”
