Everett? That stiff, serious guy just confessed to her... in a text?
No, he wasn’t stiff—at least not with her. He was just cold to everyone else. She remembered the two nights they spent in the forest and the temple—he’d been funny, sharp-tongued, bold...
Aurora’s heart ached with bittersweet emotion. What was she supposed to do now?
Was he really reckless enough to chase her all the way to Country S?
Her heart grew heavier by the second. Still, her fingers moved on their own, opening up Everett’s Twitter page.
She tapped the newly posted statement, and the moment she read it, her heart thudded out of rhythm.
"Hey everyone, my account was hacked earlier—please ignore the so-called engagement post. There’s only ever been one woman I’m engaged to: Miss Aurora. She’s the woman I love, and no matter what happens, my promise to her will never change."
Aurora’s hand trembled, and her phone slipped from her fingers.
Everett... was a public declaration like that really the right move?
Her phone started ringing. Dominic picked it up first. "Oh wow, it’s Everett calling."
