Elizabeth Thornton - [Special Branch 02] - Plot & Excerpts
They were up at the crack of dawn, excited as monkeys, dragging him out of bed and out of the house before he had time to swallow more than a few mouthfuls of coffee. But he wouldn’t have missed this chance to be with his son for the world. He was careful not to make too much of Mark. He wasn’t going to force anything, he told himself. He wanted to develop their relationship gradually and naturally. When the time was right, and not before, he would tell Mark that he was his real father. But it was hard not to touch and stare, and harder not to pull the boy into his arms and just hold him tight. The more he watched Mark and listened, the more it seemed to him that life with the Barries had not left permanent scars. Mark didn’t seem so different from Chris. They chattered incessantly. They made rifles from tree branches and pretended they were soldiers defending a fort. But where Chris had no reserves about correcting his Uncle Jason when he was doing something wrong, Mark’s eyes went round and he became unnaturally silent.
