Chapter 16 - Think before your leap

Caspian's POV

"I'm bringing our son home, Kiara. No matter what it takes."

"No!"

I blinked at her.The word cracked inside my head.

"…No?" I repeated, genuinely confused. "No what, Ki?"

She'd gone rigid in my hands. Not panicking. Not crying.

Too alert,even contemplating.

I tried to guide her back down onto the cot. "Hey. Relax. Breathe. I've got this. You don't have to spiral right now.Okay?Everything's fine.I promise."

She shrugged me off.

Physically shrugged me off with force.

"You don't need to baby me,Caspian.I'm damn serious," she snapped.

That got my attention.

Her eyes weren't wild anymore.They were calculating, focused. 

Which honestly felt worse.

"Kiara," I said carefully, lowering my voice. "Let me handle this. You've been through enough shit. I don't need you dissecting anything right now.All that matters is that we get Mat out.Anything else we will discuss later."

She let out this humorless laugh.
