The girls didn't listen at all. They didn't even blink.
Ren's clever little redhead daughter just turned around and gave her mom a completely innocent, sweet smile. Then she pointed her tiny finger straight at the cardboard sign on the pillow fort.
The invasion instantly began.
The boys gripped their foam swords tight inside the dark fort. Jax, Torian's son, was sweating. Drake (Zarek's son) tried his absolute best to look brave. They braced themselves for a loud, screaming charge.
But the girls didn't charge the front door. They were way too smart for that.
Cora (Caspian's daughter) walked right up to the front entrance of the pillows. She stopped. She dropped her bottom lip. She let out a loud, totally fake sob. She rubbed her green eyes and looked so incredibly sad that it actually broke your heart just looking at her.
