Ivy’s POV Ezra was Sean’s cousin. I wasn’t sure how I felt about that coincidence. I mean…I’d be lying if I said I hadn’t been a tiny bit disappointed when Sean showed up at the gym earlier. I know that makes me sound shitty but I really wanted to reconnect with Ezra, and I felt like Sean would get in the way of that. Since we left campus and headed to the restaurant, my stomach filled with butterflies every time I looked at Ezra. It was the kind of feeling I got when I was around someone I had a crush on. It could be memories from the past flooding my brain, but it felt like more. I hadn’t felt like that around anyone in a long while. Sure, I was attracted to Sean. But with Sean, it was the mate bond between us that drove my emotions crazy. With Ezra, that wasn’t the case
