Madison's POV:
"I trust you," I said in a whisper although my heart aches terribly as I yearn to see my baby girl once more. Rowan pulled me close as he wrapped his arms over me and goes to pick Eldon up.
We sat in silence for a brief moment as the weight of everything we've been through hovered over us like a heavy blanket.
Yet, in that quiet, there's a glint of trust, an expectation that we would pull through this, together.
I allowed myself to imagine the day when we would all be together again, where Eldora will be back in our arms, safe and sound, as I rest my head against his shoulder. I'm certain that day will come. It would have to.
The soft breathing of Eldon in his arms was the only sound in the silent room. I could see determination in Rowan's eyes as I looked up at him.
