Stubborn

[Rosco’s POV]

I wait until Denali is asleep before untangling myself from around her and making my way out into the hall. Once I’m sure I won’t wake her, I pull out my phone and call my father.

“Rosco?” He sighs, his voice filled with exhaustion. “How are you and Denali?”

“We’re fine,” I respond, “but I need you to do me a favor.”

Even if I didn’t want to leave, I needed to be present for Nadia’s questioning. I was sure that she was most likely being arrested right about now, and I knew Harold well enough to know that he wouldn’t interfere with the process. That didn’t mean that he wouldn’t do everything in his power to try to get his daughter out of jail, but for the time being, she would be taken to the police station.

“Can you and mom come keep Denali company while I go somewhere?"
