Pauly’s POV.
“Pauly.” Eleanor’s soft voice briefly soothed me.
My temper was frail, my nerves were made of glass, and my emotions were too close to the surface. I was too tired to control myself. It was either get angry or punch a speedball.
This kitchen held two of the three females that meant more to me than they knew. More to me than I could frame words around. The reminder of how precious both of them had become clear to me. Even Eleanor in such a short time was enough for my anger to quickly fade.
Though I knew with certainty that Olivia wouldn’t do anything purposefully to harm Eleanor, I also knew what she was like when she had her mind set on something. Olivia became a woman possessed. It didn’t matter the person on the other end just mattered that they held the key to the solution she needed.
