Game of Destiny – A Thrilling Tale of Power, Love & Fate

Chapter 87

The five course dinner was amazing. The atmosphere was stunning, and Finlay looked good enough to eat. He was

ticking all the boxes I could wish from a date. The way he looked at me, like I was the centre of his world, had me longing
