Something interesting

Jaden wasn't that easy to take care of. Somehow, Scarlet was easier to deal with, even if she had some weird power over him.

Nate knew the little girl was just exploiting him for her purposes, but that made their afternoons interesting and void of tantrums. She would ask for anything she could come up with, and he would provide her with that. It was the perfect way to spoil her rotten and ruin all the hard work Lara had put into Scarlet's education, but he didn't know any better. It was stronger than him, especially if that little beast called him daddy with a fake, innocent expression.

Jaden was different, though. He considered anything coming from Nate suspicious and dangerous.

The only few times Jaden would lower his guard were rather weird...

«I know what to do!» Nate realised, observing the boy playing with puzzles. Scarlet liked that kind of game, too, but not as much as Jaden.
