Chapter 30: Chapter 30 Rekindled Fire

Kelly’s POV

I looked at Klay again. He moved closer to me and I felt goosebumps when he brushed his nose against my cheek as he whispered… “Your baby bump will show soon. Relax, Kelly. I’ll handle this.”

I swallowed hard and pressed my lips together. When I looked at Pierce again, his eyes were sharp. He grabbed a drink and drank it in one gulp before he looked at me with his angry and cold eyes. I immediately averted my gaze and Lexi, who seemed so surprised, looked at Klay.

“You mean…you two really are a couple? It’s…yours, I suppose,” Lexi chuckled, obviously nervous.

Klay just stood silently beside me. I watched Pierce as he turned his back without a word and walked away. Lexi immediately followed him.

“Why did you do that?” I asked Klay after we were left alone.

He looked into my eyes. “Would you rather get caught later?”

“Still!” I growled at him. “You should’ve discussed your plans with me firsthand. How could you decide on your own?”
