Morningside Cuesta Romeo & Juliet

Heartha felt weak at the knees. She slowly lowered her body, her belly to the ground as Grayday continued to speak. She never expected him to be like this, but he was a father, and an alpha. She should have thought about this, she should have spoke of it to him. She had been stupid, she was seeing that now. Grayday was the voice of reason that she did not listen to. He was worried, not just for Khoe and his own, but for Heartha's.
