Page 83 of Her Daddies' Everything

And for some reason, as she nodded, she flicked her gaze to Tobias. He met her gaze steadily and she was the one who looked away first.

This was starting to get incredibly complicated.

“You’re goingto take the bed. I’ll take the sofa, Twinkles.”

No.

That wasn’t happening.

“I’ll take the sofa. I’m shorter and you need a good night’s sleep.”

She didn’t think she’d sleep anyway.

There was too much running through her brain for her to sleep.

“You need a good night’s sleep, baby,” he insisted. “We don’t want you getting sick.”

Everyone was always so worried about her. Concerned for her health. And she got it. But sometimes, she felt like a bit of a burden.

“Hey, look at me.” Jenner walked over to where she was standing in the living room, feeling a bit lost.

Jenner had taken her to her room to get her things so she was hugging Snowy tight for comfort right now.

He gently cupped her chin, tilting her face back. God, she loved when he touched her like this.

“Listen to me, nothing is going to happen to you.”

He’d misunderstood her reaction.

“It’s not about me. I was so scared for Maeve. Thank God she’s all right. I just . . . he’s dead so that should be the end of things, right?”

So why did she feel so weird? As if something bad was coming and she couldn’t stop it.

“He’s dead,” Jenner said firmly. “Maeve is safe and Gray will keep her that way. You are safe and we will keepyouthat way.”

“I want you guys to all be safe too.”

He gave her that sweet smile. The one he saved for his family. Jenner was charming and gorgeous. Women all over the country swooned over him. But he only gave his family this smile, this gentleness.

And she loved that.

“All right.” She let out a deep breath, trying to ease the knot of tension in her stomach.

“And you’re going to sleep in the bed.”

“But I’m smaller,” she protested. “I’ll fit on the sofa better.”

“It folds out, baby,” he replied. “I’ll be fine on it. I want you to use the bathroom and get ready for bed. Off you go.” He turned her toward the bathroom and lightly patted her back.

Immy’s heart was racing as she grabbed her toiletries and pajamas and headed into the bathroom.

She needed to calm down.

It wasn’t the first time she’d slept with Jenner close by and it wouldn’t be the last.

She hoped.

After getting ready, she headed back into the bedroom. Jenner was doing something at the bed and surprise filled her as she saw he’d arranged the pillows into a U-shape.
