Jared had been more or less relaxed entirely, until Amelia faltered a bit. He knew that Liam would always be a sore spot for her and she couldn't really say that he blamed her but it still pissed him off to no end to know even a portion of the things that had happened to Amelia. He loved her with all of his heart, he wanted to protect her with all of his being. And he would. Liam would never bother her again, if he had anything to say about it.
He frowned slightly, hesitating a moment before he nodded. Jared reached forward, squeezing Amelia's hand. He turned to face her fully, forcing back his swell of anger. He brushed his thumb over her knuckles, considering his words for a moment before he actually opened his mouth to speak.
"I expect to be told when you're leaving the house," Jared paused, his face scrunching slightly. "And when you get home. I don't care so much what you're doing but I want to know where you are so I know you're safe," he explained, deciding it was likely best to explain his rules to hers. So she would be less likely to fight him on them. "And your bedtime is going to be ten at night, you're expected to be showered and in bed by then. You can have your phone until ten thirty, then it goes on my side of the bed."
Jared grinned as he sat up a bit straighter. "No sweets or soda without asking either. Juice is included in that," he said, giving a small nod to better affirm his words. "Because only good girls get rewarded, hm?"
