"I don't want to be your brother. And fyi… I'm not your brother."
Roxy was too confused by this statement. Nevertheless, her heart didn't stop beating fast as if expecting something.
Declan isn't her brother? That means… they can be together?
But why did the man dump her? Plus, she had already discussed this with her father, and the older man just kept quiet as if the news was accurate.
Really… what happened?
A gentle caress on her head woke Roxy from her daydream.
"Take a rest. I'll wake you up as soon as we get there."
"But…"
"I don't know the details either, and that's why we're going there to find out."
Once again, Declan took Roxy's hand, and his thumb made gentle circular motions enjoying the smooth skin on the back of his lover's hand.
In this second, Roxy neither avoided his touch nor rebelled. If Declan isn't her brother, isn't it allowed to hold hands?
