“It’s late,” Lucas says after Isabela has been in my room playing for the past hour. “We’ve had a long day, I think it would be a good idea to let Miss Mandy get some rest now. And you, Miss Isabela, need to go take a bath and get to bed. Mother might be upset to know you’re still up.”
Isabela whines a bit and wraps her arms around one of mine. I yawn and feel the exhaustion setting in. Isabela must notice it in my eyes because she reluctantly agrees to leave. She gives me a quick, tight hug and then dashes out of my room.
“She’s adorable,” I say once Lucas and I are finally alone.
“She’s a pain in my ass but she is adorable, I’ll give her that,” Lucas admits. He sighs and gets up. He walks over to me and sits on the big bed next to me. “You should get some rest.”
