Kirk’s nose was at Caroline’s collarbones. He sniffed her familiar scent. But all that came to his

mind were all the things Sarah had done to Caroline during this time.

He couldn’t imagine how Caroline’s small, fragile body would handle her parents‘ betrayal.

Kirk hugged Caroline even tighter!

“It’s nothing. I just want to hug you.

Caroline felt her heartstrings being plucked and trembled minutely.

She allowed Kirk to hold her.

together.

As she listened to Kirk’s heartbeat, Caroline started to feel sleepy.

Suddenly, a coldness spread from her collarbone.

Caroline got a fright, and whatever sleepiness she felt disappeared without a trace.

She opened her eyes wide and saw Kirk biting her collarbone, sucking gently.

“Are you a dog?”

Caroline felt embarrassed by this. She pushed Kirk away. “I’m hungry.”

Kirk got up and went to bring some dishes out of the kitchen.

Caroline picked up her cutlery and started to eat.
