Chapter 18: Kingston

Shifting Ayla’s legs slightly, I carefully pulled two photos from my back pocket. I didn’t know how she would respond to the information I was about to give her. But I hoped it would

convince her to stay. At least stay with my pack. But I was still

nervous.

“Ayla, there was a reason I was so intent on helping you. Not just because it was the right thing to do,” I said. “It’s one of the reasons I want you to stay here.”

“Okay…” she said slowly.

I handed her one of the photos.

“That’s mine,” she said, taking it and holding it delicately. “I was worried I’d lost it in the crash.”

“I found it the next morning. Pierce and I had gone back when it was light out. I wasn’t sure at first, but when you woke up, I saw you had his eyes.” I smiled.

“You weren’t sure about what?”

“Ayla, I knew your father,” I said, handing her the second picture.

She snatched the photo from my fingers, confusion all over her face. It was a picture of me and her father. I was about ten at the time, but I’m sure she could tell it was me.
