章 87: Chapter 87

"Was?" Avery's back froze stiff at his words. It was one thing for him to mention Bryce being his father in such an odd tone but why did he have to make it sound as though Bryce was no longer in the picture? 

"You didn't do anything to him, did you?" She asked him. He didn't say a word and didn't look like he had heard her so she inched closer and lightly tapped his shoulder. "Gabe." 

He looked down at her. "What if I did something? Will it make you hate me?" 

That was a no-brainer. "For a man who admitted to hating me for no reason? Of course not." 

He pulled her in for a hug. "It's just you and me now. And Angel, and although I hate to admit it, Damon and Mabella. I wish I could say Mina too." 

"You feel guilty." She observed. He wouldn't be rambling about other people. He was probably only doing it to take his mind off what he had done.
