At first, Silas Lockwood didn't understand what Mason Jacobs meant, not until he glanced down and saw Shane Sterling and Isla Prescott's hands tightly clasped together.
He froze, a shadow suddenly falling over his eyes.
"You two..."
"Can't you tell?" Shane Sterling raised his and Isla Prescott's joined hands, waving them in front of Silas Lockwood. "We're dating."
You could practically hear the childish need to show off in his voice from a mile away.
Silas Lockwood fell silent, his gaze drifting uncertainly toward Isla Prescott.
Isla Prescott felt a cold sweat break out on her back, so embarrassed she could die. But then a thought occurred to her: 'We already broke up. Who I date now is my business, and Silas has no say in it.'
Mason Jacobs, completely oblivious to the fact that he was in a war zone, continued to run his mouth. "Congrats on moving up a generation, Silas. From now on, Shane will have to call you 'big brother'."
