Waylen paused for a moment, choosing his words carefully.
“An old friend of your mother’s has passed away.”
Mark’s confusion was palpable.
He racked his brain, but the identity of this old friend remained elusive. After all, the families had once been prominent in their own right, but the past was a distant memory now.
Waylen had originally intended to return to Duefron overnight. He missed Rena and the kids.

“Zoey isn’t feeling well. Having an extra person in the house might help, and she’s very fond of you.”
Waylen consented.
Mark took it upon himself to prepare a few dishes.
The night air was chilly, and Waylen stood alone in the courtyard, dialing Rena’s number to let her know where he was.
Rena’s gentle voice greeted him when she picked up.
“Dinner is ready, Will you be back for it
Waylen, undoing a button on his coat, whispered, “You and the kids should eat first. I’m away on business, and it might be difficult for me to make it back. If you have trouble sleeping, let Alexis sleep with you. She always likes to snuggle up to you the most.”
Waylen claimed he was on a business trip, and Rena had no reason to doubt him, She simply wished him well and implored him to take care of himself,
When he listened to her soft-spoken words, Waylen’s heart swelled with longing. He couldn’t resist saying something cheesy.
“Rena, it’s only been a day, but I already miss you.”
“Me too.” Waylen’s heart did a little dance.

Waylen hung up the phone, grinning. He joined Mark for a drink and some conversation.
As he removed his coat, revealing a black turtleneck, Waylen*s face flushed a faint red from the wine.
He looked incredibly handsome.
The wine had loosened Waylen’s tongue, and he asked casually, “When do you plan to give Cecilia and Edwin a home
Mark held his glass, a bittersweet smile playing on his lips.
He felt guilty for repeatedly postponing his promise to Cecilia. Thankfully, danger no longer lurked nearby.
