“Smile!” the photographer called out. 

I wrapped my arms around Claire, pulling her closer, and gave my best smile for the camera. It was the best I could do. After all, this group picture would be hanging on the walls of Lunar Hall. The bright flash went off, and for a split second, his face appeared in my mind-Alaric. 

I blinked, trying to shake the thought away. His personality, his presence….there was something unique about him that I had never seen before in anyone. His glow, his kindness, his innocence—and Mom wanted me to destroy that. 

It had already been a few weeks since I’d last seen him, and I had been doing everything I could to avoid him. Honestly, it wasn’t that difficult. Alaric was mostly surrounded by guards, and even if he wasn’t—I was sure he’d respectfully just stay out of my way. 

Maybe I was insane, but I wanted to be around him—and at the same time, I knew I couldn’t because I had to protect him. 

Every time he was near, I could sense it somehow. It didn’t make sense, but it kept happening, and I hated the feeling. 

The Elite Team had already been formed, and we had been training together for a while now. It sucked going to practices for something I wouldn’t even need anymore, but luckily Alaric wasn’t part of it, and I hoped it would remain that way. 

As for James, I was still with him a lot, but now it felt more like an obligation. Though I wouldn’t need him any longer, I didn’t have it in me to ditch him-despite Jane shooting me glares during training. He didn’t deserve that-not when he seemed too happy whenever we were together. 

I liked being around him, and I even had to admit, he had improved a bit in bed. I had misjudged him, and he’d shown me that he truly liked me-not because of some fetish, but because of me. 

“Addy?” Claire’s voice broke through my thoughts. 

Startled, I looked at her. “Yes?” 

“We can go now,” she said, pointing to the students who were beginning to leave the room. 

I glanced around, realizing I had completely zoned out. Something I’d been doing a lot lately, “Right.” 

Claire raised her brows. “Are you okay?” 

I locked my arm with hers as I plastered a smile on my lips. “Perfect!” I dragged her along, and we started walking. 

“Did I already tell you what Greg said last night?” 

I sighed with a small smile. “Yes, Claire, I think you did.” 

As we stepped out of Lunar Hall, Claire ignored me and continued. “He said he would drop everything and

you, no matter how long it takes.” 

The word ‘love’ hit me deeper than I expected. He was right-I wasn’t familiar with the concept, and I wasn sure if I wanted to be. Yet the feeling in my heart after hearing him say he’l would fight for me terrified me. 

This wasn’t the Moon Goddess’ will. 

It was Baelor’s… 

I opened my mouth, ready to argue, throw something back at him–but the words wouldn’t come. Nothing 

would. 

The hardest part was when he didn’t stick around for me to find them either. He just turned and walked off after getting everything off his chest, leaving me standing there, completely speechless. 

Something told me I wasn’t going to get rid of this guy anytime soon.
