Chapter 301: Big Words

"Oh, I thought you weren't afraid of those," Cage commented slyly. "You can grab my arm and hide your face if it helps." He snickered. 

"Wouldn't you like that," she huffed. She wasn't scared of ghosts or horror but to humor him, she might scream a little. Hopefully, he wouldn't notice how fake they sounded.

Of course, the ride was smooth. It wasn't scary enough for her to scream but she took every opportunity to grab his hands and squeeze it tightly. He didn't complain.

When they came out, Katherine spotted a small store that was about to close. Without a second thought, she let go of Cage's hand and sprinted to it. With her wallet in hand, Cage could see her buying something.

And he didn't have a good feeling about the situation.

"What did you buy?" he asked, taking an involuntary step back, wondering if he made a grave mistake.
