Best part of the entire chapter right here:
He could feel Kayden's lips smiling against his chest. "Thank you."
Damien scoffed. "For what? Allowing you to run off into a possibly dangerous situation? Again?"
"For trusting that I can handle it," Kayden said.
"Fuck, kitten, I know can handle it, but it doesn't stop me from wanting to stop you," he said. "You're probably the bravest person I know, but I still just want to wrap myself around you and keep you safe from everything."
"Then... thank you for being able to let me go," Kayden said softly.
Damien fought back his urge to change his mind. Instead, he tucked the boy closer, hanging on to him for as long as Kayden would let him.
Just check the "Fuck, kitten..." line. You left out a word. Picky Jake is picky! LOL. I loved this chapter
