Rhoda's POV
A MONTH LATER
I leaned against the headboard of my bed my fingers absentmindedly tracing the soft fabric of my nightgown.
Everything had been going so perfectly well.
Too well and that scared me.
I had spent weeks shielding my heart, keeping it locked away where no one could reach it get here; I was falling and falling gradually for Lucian.
Each day, he does something funny or sweet and that made me falling harder than I planned
A certain member surfaced in my mind, warm and golden like the morning sun.
Lucian had taken my hand in his grip, firm yet gentle as he guided me through the mall and when he realized a certain necklace had caught my eye, he bought them for me
The way he smiled in satisfaction when he placed the necklace on my neck made my heart skip a beat.
