Chapter 76: S4 Redemption: Why Fight Nature

Sophia Mahoney

Sophia chews on the inside of her lower lip. From the window, she watches Logan and Aden get into the black Lexus. She shuts the drapes then makes her way to the couch.

Thor follows her to the corner of the sofa, then sits on the floor at her feet, staring at her with big, coppery eyes. After a minute or two, he whines and grumbles, and then he rests his head on her lap.

Sophia scratches behind his ears, then lets out a slow, ragged breath. "Well, that could've been worse?"

Tara sits on the cushion next to Sophia, and Travis plunks down on the arm of the couch.

I may have avoided talking to Aden this time, she thinks; however, I know I'll have to at some point, but right now, I'm not ready to do that.

"Did you know he was going to show up?" Tara asks softly.
