Almost everything had changed in the last twenty-four hours. I still had no idea where Eason’s head was about Luna. When it came to dealing with personal disasters, I had two speeds: obsession or turbo obsession. There wasn’t a lot in between.

Eason, however, took a much slower path when processing his emotions. He’d get quiet, sit on it for a few days, and work out all the different scenarios in his head, and only when he’d looked at it from every possible angle would he come to a conclusion.

Yes, I was curious if he’d consider a DNA test to confirm or disprove what we both feared, but it wasn’t my place to even suggest such a thing. When Eason was ready to talk about it, he knew where to find me. And after last night, that somewhere would not be on the other end of the couch around the firepit.

He kissed me good morning, slow and reverent.

He stroked my thigh under the breakfast table where Luna couldn’t see.

And when I told him I needed to get home to Asher and Madison, Eason—being even more incredible than I already knew him to be—gave me a hug and told me to give him a few minutes to pack his stuff because he was coming too.

Unfortunately, some things were still the same, mainly the house we had to go home to and the memories that would forever live inside it. As much as I would have loved to move and get a fresh start somewhere new, it was important for me to maintain stability for the kids. Rob was still their dad regardless of how he’d broken me. It was my job to keep his memory alive for them, and if it meant pictures hanging on the wall in the house he’d called a home, then that was a sacrifice I would have to make.

Given the situation, it sucked knowing Eason had to make that sacrifice too.

However, not all change was bad.

While he packed up Luna’s stuff and prepared the cabin for us to leave, I made a phone call to Jillian. As I explained our situation, I was met with outrage on what Rob and Jessica had done, curses banishing them to hell, and, finally, pleas for all the details on what Eason was really like in bed. But by the end, she promised she would take care of a few things for me at home. With it only being a four-hour trip back, I didn’t have high expectations for how much she could accomplish.

Though, as we pulled up to find two furniture delivery trucks and three others marked Hud Construction filling the brick horseshoe driveway, I couldn’t help but laugh. Clearly, Jillian’s skillset was far greater than answering the phones and providing vibrator coupon codes.

Damn, that woman needed a raise.

Smirking, I parked on the street. Eason pulled up behind me to do the same.

“What’s all this?” he asked, folding out of his black Tahoe.

“I’m not entirely sure.”

Confusion crinkled his forehead. “Does
