"Nothing." She took a deep breath to suppress her anger.
Although they were mother and son, Yvette and he were separate beings. Moreover, this happened because of Yvette and not him.
Therefore, although she felt awful, she had no reason t o let it out on him.
"Are you sure?" the end of his speech pitched as he continued to stare at her, looking suspicious.
Summer didn't want to stay on the topic, so she touched the cream that he held in his hand with her chin. "Aren't you going to continue?"
He stared at her before turning his attention back to her palm and continued to apply the medicine.

under her blanket and got ready to sleep.
But like a panther, he flipped over, and his arms landed on both sides of her head. His firmly built legs spread across her body as he scanned her from head t o toe, like a savage with killing intent.
Summer frowned and purposely ignored his expression. "What now?"
"What do you say?" his tone deepened, and his eyes were like burning fire.
