I didn't want to make you worry, so I cstraight home. I'm sorry for causing you concern." Finley inhaled the familiar scent of Samantha and spoke in a tender tone, "As long as you're safe and home, that's all that matters to me." Samantha smiled warmly. "This is my home. No matter how late it gets, I will always return." "But I was afraid you wouldn't," Finley murmured.
