His gaze drifted over their faces before he finally turned to Cade and said, “Share your meal evenly with

“No need!” Moss shot back instantly, waving his hands in protest.
“We were just messing around,” Greta added quickly, clearly uneasy with the oddball lunch offerings. “It wasn’t
anything serious.”
