Marked As Theirs
Chapter 13
Veronica's POV
Cecilia had taken the seat beside Adnam.
She crossed her legs slowly and seductively, like she was trying to announce to the whole audience in the room that Adnam was hers and hers alone.
“Focus, Veronica,” I whispered to myself.
We had a project to do. I had a son waiting for me at home. There were better things to worry about than how Cecilia tucked her hair behind her ear while whispering something that made Adnam’s lips twitch.
He almost smiled?
He didn't even push her away.
I glanced away and pretended to check my notes and where we stopped.
“I guess we can split up now,” Gareth said, glancing at Cecilia and then at Avie. “We all know what we’re doing, right?”
They all nodded. Except me. I was using style to watch Cecilia.
