Chapter 128

I blinked, caught off guard by the question. "I’m still figuring that out."

He smiled, a hint of admiration in his eyes. "That’s honest. I like that but I believe Snow does."

As we sat there, the conversation grew more personal, the barriers between us slowly lowering. I couldn’t explain it, but with every passing moment, I felt more at ease with Zade.

There was something about him—an unspoken understanding, a warmth that felt strangely familiar.

And yet, a tiny voice in the back of my mind reminded me of the complications that had already formed around this young, talented, handsome man.

But for now, sitting in the sun with Zade, the world felt a little less complicated than it should.

I returned to the mansion right when the sun was setting. The drive back had been quiet, but my thoughts weren’t. My conversation with Zade stayed in my mind—the simple way he talked, the warmth in his eyes, and the odd feeling of familiarity that I couldn’t fully identify.

Why? I found myself asking but got no response whatsoever.
