Stryker
Page 22
My focus returned to Jake with our daughter so I couldn’t resist any longer and climbed out of bed. The rustling of the bedcover alerted Jake to the fact that I was awake and as I crossed the room to them his cheeks heated in embarrassment.
“How much did you hear,” he whispered, holding my gaze.
I smiled and curved my arm around his neck as I stood beside the rocking chair. “I couldn’t hear anything. You whispered so quietly.”
He held my gaze for a few more seconds before he patted his lap. “Curl up on here with us.”
I was careful to not wake Reagan as I curled up on his lap. His arm went around my back as we both settled in watching our beautiful child.
“I can never find the words to tell you what you and Reagan mean to me.” He dropped his head to mine. “I love you, Evangeline. My Evie.”
“I love you too, Jake Rivers.”
