Charlene had just settled into a new restaurant and taken her first bite when her phone buzzed twice.

It was a message from Connie.

She casually opened it and found that Connie had sent her two photos. The people in the photos were Thorne and Vesta.

Connie continued, “The first one was from a friend of mine last night. She spotted them at a hotel. Seriously, New Year’s Eve, and they’re off booking a room?! Honestly, have they no shame?”
