Evelyn s POV
Hanging up the phone, I go do some washing, hanging out the last piece on the clothesline when I feel cold hands touch my shoulders making me jump with fright.
"Geez, don t sneak up on people" I turn around and tell Orion. He runs his hands down my arms before I bend down picking up the empty basket.
"What did you do today?" Orion asks as we are walking inside.
"Nothing much, washing, spoke to Lana" I tell him not realising Ryland and Thaddeus on the back porch listening.
"How did you speak to Lana, Evelyn?" Thaddeus growls out as I reach the top step. I roll my eyes at his angry tone only for him to grip my chin forcing me to look up at him. He presses his lips together.
"There is this thing called a phone, you know sends signals to a satellite in the sky allowing you to speak to people" I tell him, and he growls at my sarcasm.
