Chapter 218: Looking Back, Moving Forward

Eleonore’s POV

‘Hello,’ I said as I walked through the door of the twins’ study.

Rhett raised his head to look at me, lifting his attention from the stack of papers that were littered in front of him. “Hey, what’s wrong?” I shook my head as I walked closer to him, placing myself at his side as his arm came to wrap around my waist.

‘Nothing’s wrong,’ I replied. ‘Just wanted to come say hi.’

‘Hayden’s training with some of the wolves. It’s so warm outside I don’t know how they can handle being in the heat for so long. I tried taking them some lemonade but they’re not taking a break any time soon.’

Rhett nodded along as he listened to me, his attention now back on the papers for a moment as I spoke. I found myself pouting at the lack of attention from him, and moved to go sit on one of the couches before his other hand came to stop me.

“Hey, where are you going? I was listening.”

‘I don’t want to distract you…’

“You’re not distracting me, come here.”
