Zion sits across from me, his face shocked. I can’t believe the message on his phone, and he can’t believe he’s suddenly been thrust into this situation.
We’re caught in a moment that feels endless.
…Why does Siena contact Zion?
She never cared about any man other than me in the past.
……..
Will she? With Zion?
I refuse to consider it’s jealousy. But The words she sent are an unexpected dagger, a reminder of everything that’s wrong
between us.
Zion says, “No, no, Raiden, my king, you need to trust me. I and Siena have no connection.”
I say, “What do you suppose she’s getting at?”
