"Can we take Shadow out on a date?"
"Pfft!"
As soon as Kaiden said those words out loud, two major things happened. First, Shadow spat out the water that he was drinking, and second, Mark burst out into laughter. The latter almost rolled out of the couch because of laughing too hard.
"Really? Can we do that?" Emily asked excitedly while completely ignoring the reaction of the other two men.
She felt Shadow turning his questioning gaze from Kaiden towards her as if to ask what the hell was wrong with the two of them. However, she tried to act oblivious to him as she waited for Kaiden's response.
