Keira glanced at Lewis and spoke softly, "Let's head home."
"Alright," he replied.
She hesitated for a moment before continuing, "Don't drive like that again, though. Ten hours straight? That's not safe."
"I wasn't tired," Lewis said, his deep voice even more captivating under the night sky. He gave her a small smile. "How about this? Every couple of weeks, I'll take you on a drive like this, just to let you relax."
Keira chuckled. "That's not necessary."
"It is," Lewis insisted.
The car pulled into the driveway of the Olsen estate. After parking, Lewis turned to her, his tone suddenly serious. "Keira, I don't know what challenges the South family might throw your way, or what's waiting for you in the future, but I want you to know—you don't have to be afraid. I'll always be here with you."
Keira froze.
There were tears in her eyes.
Don't be afraid.
It wasn't something she heard often.
