Chapter 16

Several hours later, she is snoozing, and he is still watching her. Like an angel, she is sound asleep. Her delicate appearance puts a bitter smile on his face. All he can think about is ways to protect her.

Silently, he switches off the lamp on the nightstand and hesitantly places a kiss on her forehead then leaves her to rest.

The brisk wind blowing over cold air from the ocean wakes Leo. Rushing out of bed, he is chasing the clock before the morning sun rises. When he is done getting ready, he wakes her.

Adding a jacket as a final touch to her look, she goes down to the living room. When she arrives in the living room, Leo and Alonso are standing with a man about the same age as them. Her eyes scrutinize the place , she is going to miss it and the person living in it. Alonso and the man who appears to have high agility leave the apartment, giving them privacy and he briefs her with imperative information as quickly as possible.
