Jonathan took a step back as voices called from behind the patio gate. “Ava? Is that you?”
I sighed a heavy breath. “Help me, will you?”
His brows lifted. “Do you really need my help?” But when I didn’t answer, he cupped his hand for a lift up.
I stepped into his make-shift stirrup. “And you will come back with me to explain what happened to The Three.”
“As you wish,” he said.
Before I could swing my leg over the top of the fence, Jonathan aided me further with a push to the rear.
No, Jonathan never changed—but I wasn’t sure I wanted him to.
