Aliana POV

I could not believe what had happened between Nikolas and me.

He was gentle and loving. Everything was confusing.

I knew it wasn’t something permanent, but how would my heart recover from this when it finally ended?

The way he held me in the bath, the small talks we had in bed when we were exhausted. It was as if I was with a different person altogether.

His gaze was soft, his tone was gentle, and his smile was genuine.

It wasn’t the typical cynical attitude he wore to get under my skin. I was afraid that he was up to something.

What if he suddenly cuts me off again? Thinking about it made me want to throw up.

I knew I would need to be careful and not give him my heart completely.

“Too late for that, Aliana. We gave it to him long before we realised it,” Raven said, always there to point things out, and I stood still in the passage.

Taking a couple of breaths, I braced myself. I did not know what Nikolas would do, but I hoped I would have the heart to bear it. I opened the door to the Queen’s room, and she was sleeping.

Ania and Lisa were there, and they smiled at me. Ania’s smile was brighter than Lisa’s, but it had always been that way, so I did not mind.

“And you finally grace us with your presence,” Ania said, winking at me.

I blushed because all I could think about was my time with Nikolas. How can someone so cruel know how to love? I did not want to lose this side of him. It was like a dream.
