CHAPTER 70: One More Kiss

  Emma's POV

  Entwined in the warmth of their love and concern, my tension melted away, replaced by a deep sense of belonging. Bennett, Hunter, and Parker gather around me, their eyes shining with emotion.

  "We were so worried about you, Emma," Bennett said, his voice trembling. "We've missed you so much."

  Hunter nodded in agreement. "We thought we'd lost you. But here you are, and we're not letting you go again."

  Parker's eyes brim with tears. "We've been searching for you everywhere. We were starting to lose hope."

  My heart overflowed with love and gratitude. I reached out, touching each of their faces, feeling their warmth and connection.

  "I've missed you all so much too," I whispered. "I was so scared, but knowing you're here with me makes everything better."
