The Black Swan's Final Revenge Pirouette: The 99th Game Was Mine All Along by Kylie Homme

Leo also looked at my phone as it was on the table, I glanced at his curious face before attending that incoming video call. The picture of a handsome blonde man appeared on my screen as the call connected, the softness in his blue orbs calmed me as he spoke gently,
