As soon as they arrived in Daniel's penthouse, Eric was straightaway greeted by ravaging pets, and he almost fell back when a large Alaskan malamute came knocking towards him in full force, licking his face like there was no tomorrow.
"Hey, Snow. How are you doing, little girl? You've been bigger since the last time I saw you." Eric chuckled, rubbing the large furry dog who kept wiggling in his embrace.
Evangeline wanted to pull Winter away from Eric, but she was caught surprised by the sudden name. "Snow? Whose snow?"
Eric blinked, quickly thinking of an excuse. "I thought she reminded me of snow since she's white," he said, lowering his head.
". . ."
A chilling sweat ran from the curve of Eric's spine while he avoided Evangeline's scrutinizing gaze. He only breathed the air he held when she shrugged her shoulders and bent down, picking a hamster and a little piglet.
