Chapter 71: I want to talk to you, Selene!
Selene POV
"goddess, are you alright?" I asked still seated giving a casual glance to the coffee stain that was beginning to soak into the fabric of her green gown giving it a pale red colour that looked like a blood stain.
I watched as she sprang to her feet, holding the front of her dress as she tried not to make too much distressing noise. Judging from how hot her coffee had been, I am sure she would get scalded, it was inevitable.
"Can you get me a maid?" she replied instead snatching the paper towel from the patio table as she dabbed at the stain.
"Certainly," I nodded "Someone would arrive soon. You see we were so enthusiastic about you joining us tonight, so all hands are on deck in the kitchen but in a few minutes, a maid should arrive. Anyways, do seat,".
Her eyes flashed with annoyance as she stared at me and I thought for a minute she wasn’t going to sit but she fixed a smile on her face as she settled in.
"What were you asking me about Noah, Luna?" She asked placing her hand demurely on her thighs.
"Yeah," I nodded regarding her quietly "Noah told me that both of you dated briefly until you left,".
"Briefly?" she arched a perfectly carved brow "4 years is hardly brief but we had the best relationship until I had to leave. Everyone thought we were going to end up together because of how very much in love we were. Sad it ended and in the messiest ways ever, I’m sure he told you!"
"Yeah, he did," I agreed "On our wedding night more like it when I mentioned that I hadn’t ever seen him around a woman. It’s strange how you were so perfect and you broke it off I presume?"
"It became boring... the same old routine and you must agree that Noah is one hella a wonderful man. I mean, he’s so good... almost perfect and it used to piss the hell out of me that we almost never had drama. Looking back," she exhaled as she played with her fingers "I realized that I made a huge mistake. He was the perfect man for me and I threw it all away because I felt there were better men out there,".
