Hold Your Breath 02 - Unmasking The Marquess - Plot & Excerpts
Miss Mildred’s lap is bony, not soft like yours.” Reanna looked down at the big brown doe eyes of Jeannie, curls hanging past her eyebrows to catch her lashes. The little girl rubbed her bottom on Reanna’s thighs, snuggling in. “I would think any lap that is open is a good lap to sit in.” Jeannie shrugged. “Yours is just better. That’s all. When you comin’ home?” Reanna glanced up at Killian down the walk. He went down to his knees, bending over and holding several evergreen branches up off the ground so Albert could poke his hand in the dirt under the needles. Albert was giggling uncontrollably as Killian pretended to snap the branches down onto Albert’s hand, again and again. Reanna couldn’t hear what they were saying, but the laughter easily reached her ears. Killian was an expert at continuing this unfair assault. After Thomas yesterday, today he produced Albert and Jeannie, and Reanna’s heart instantly re-melted after the stalemate she and Killian had found themselves in the previous day.
