MIRABEL REDFORD
[EARLIER]
After the death of his eldest brother, Adrian had to learn leadership. To help his father, he forgot all of his bad behaviors. “I was a bad boy.” His words. From the glimmer of his eyes to the way he smirks, I have to say, if I didn’t know better I would have agreed. No way someone as sweet as Adrian used to be a f**k boy.
He shows me around his packhouse. Beautiful is the only word I can describe it. I find myself warming to him faster than I have ever warmed to anyone. Listening to his trauma makes me open up about mine.
For the first time in my life, instead of speaking to Juniper how I felt after dad died, I tell someone else.
Gladly, he doesn’t show pity or surprise. It is as if he had been there when it happened. He understands me more than anyone ha
