Chapter 60

“I wasn’t sleeping, I just closed my eyes. Caden, am I really yours now? If I am this might have been worth it.” Johnny said in a sleepy voice.

“You’re mine now and there’s no going back. Go to sleep, baby. I’ve put the buzzer in your hand for the nurse if you’re in pain.” Caden looked out the glass partition and saw Jim, Reed, Bull, Jamie, Gary and Danny. Brian and Bear were standing near Cisco and Greg in the doorway.

“We won’t leave him alone. One of us will always be here. You need to go and see about Mrs. Mills and Aubrey’s family.”
